Still surprised that Ridley Scott intends to direct a prequel to his own film, Alien ? So is he: “I’ve always avoided sequels, unless I felt there was something fresh,” the filmmaker tells MTV. Among his “fresh” concepts for the prequel: the main character will be a woman, the story will lead right up to the first movie, and “there’s a lot of copying [of the other films], dude. There’s a lot of homage. Is that the polite word? Homage? I call it something else.” No, he really said that. [ MTV ]
