Watch Neill Blomkamp And Sigourney Weaver Talk About The Next ‘Alien’!

Briefly: We were all pretty excited to hear last week that District 9 creator Neill Blomkamp is officially working on the next Alien film, and today both he and Sigourney Weaver had an interesting chat with Sky Movies while promoting Blomkamp’s March 6th release, Chappie:

In the video, Weaver states that she would “love to take Ripley out of orbiting around in space and give a proper finish to what was such such an excellent story. When someone like Neill Blomkamp suddenly said ‘well, I’m interested in finishing the story,’ my little ears perked up.”

Blomkamp continues, “I want this film to feel like it is literally the genetic sibling of Aliens. So it’s Alien, Aliens, this movie.” So, by the sound of things, the next Alien may disregard Alien 3 and Alien: Resurrection completely.

Are you into Blomkamp continuing the once celebrated series? What if he disregarded the last two films? Sound out below!
