Neill Blomkamp’s ‘Alien’ Sequel Will Probably Forget About Two ‘Alien’ Movies

“Aliens” fans upset that Hicks and Newt die at the beginning of “Alien 3” are maybe in for a treat. It appears Neill Blomkamp’s “Alien” movie will possibly pick up the franchise’s narrative after the events of “Aliens.”

Speaking to Sky News, in a video that has since been made private but was widely disseminated beforehand, Blomkamp said, “I want this film to feel like it is literally the genetic sibling of ‘Aliens.’ So it’s, ‘Alien,’ ‘Aliens,’ this movie.”
