Neill Blomkamps "Aliens" geraten ins StockenTwentieth Century Fox hat Neill Blomkamps neuen "Aliens"-Film auf Eis gelegt und wird ihn möglicherweise auch gar nicht realisieren. Das berichtet der Filmnachrichtenblog "Deadline.com" und zitiert dabei einen Tweet des Regisseurs. Produziert werden sollte der Film vom Regisseur des Originals, Ridley Scott. Die Handlung sollte ursprünglich an die des geplanten "Prometheus" Clip-Sequels, das ab Anfang 2016 gedreht werden soll, anschließen. Ursprünglich wollte Scott, der auch den zweiten "Prometheus"-Teil inszenieren wird, die Geschichte des ersten einfach weitererzählen. Doch nun hat er laut "Deadline.com" seine Meinung offenbar geändert und sieht das "Prometheus"-Sequel eher als eine Art "Aliens"-Prequel. Daher hat die Fox Blomkamps "Aliens"-Film jetzt erst einmal auf Eis gelegt.Quelle: Blickpunkt:Film

Neill Blomkamp’s ‘Alien’ Will Focus On Newt?![...]Biehn spoke candidly with Icons of Fright, in which he reveals that Blomkamp will bring Newt back, while also using her to further the franchise (in a new direction).“They’re planning on bringing me and Newt back and at this point Newt will be around twenty-seven years old. I know that every actress in Hollywood is going to want to play this one, it’s really a passing of the torch between Sigourney and this younger actress who would play Newt. It would keep the franchise alive and the studios would make money, because that’s what the bottom line is now: money.“[...]Biehn feels strongly that the sequel will happen, eventually, mostly because it would be an egg to the face of Sigourney and himself:“I know that Ridley’s focus is on the second PROMETHEUS (now titled ALIEN: COVENANT) and I’m sure that he and Fox both don’t want that and Neill’s movie to come out right next to each other, because they’re kind of two different worlds, with ALIENS taking place thousands of years later, which is how they explained it all to me, but at the same time, they want to give them a similar feel. I know they’re putting the brakes on Neill’s movie just for a little while, but I really think that it would be embarrassing to Ridley and Fox and Sigourney if they just didn’t make the movie.”[...]http://bloody-disgusting.com/news/3370946/3370946/

Sigourney Weaver Says Neill Blomkamp’s ‘Aliens’ Sequel Will Diverge from CanonWhile the state of Neill Blomkamp’s planned Aliens sequel is a bit muddled at the moment, one thing is becoming more and more clear as the months march by: it will not be beholden to either David Fincher’s Alien 3 (1992) or Jean-Pierre Jeunet’s Alien: Resurrection (1997). Unfortunately, that’s about all we can presume at this point as even a title hasn’t been settled on. We do know, however, that franchise star Sigourney Weaver is expected to be appearing in “Alien 5" as Ellen Ripley, and it’s from Weaver that more news has arrived today.In speaking with EW about the 30th anniversary of the James Cameron-written/directed film, Aliens, Weaver pretty much confirmed that her upcoming sequel with Blomkamp at the helm will diverge from the pre-existing movies. The chat came on the heels of news that an Aliens reunion will be coming to Comic-Con in celebration of that film’s debut 30 years ago; a quick quote from Ripley about the state of the untitled Aliens film nearly got lost in all that excitement.Here’s what Weaver had to say about the new movie:“It’s just as if, you know, the path forks and one direction goes off to three and four and another direction goes off to Neill’s movie.”It was a little over a year ago that Blomkamp himself said as much, making his intentions clear:“My favorites are the first two movies. So I want to make a film that’s connected to Alien and Aliens. That’s my goal. I’m not trying to undo Alien 3 or Alien: Resurrection, I just want it to be connected to Alien and Aliens.”At the time, Weaver also added:“I always wanted to complete this story and it wasn’t really until Neill and I started talking that I said, ‘This is why we waited however many years its been.’”Weaver will also be collaborating with Aliens director Cameron on a number of sequels to Avatar. While the director is clearly busy with the three planned features that will take the production team through 2022 at the very least, he still occasionally has Aliens on the mind:“You know, it’s interesting. I don’t normally pursue these kind of nostalgia moments like we’re going to do down at Comic-Con, and I didn’t do it much at all for Terminator on its 30th, but there’s something about Aliens. It was a milestone for myself and Gale because the film got seven Academy Award nominations.”After winning two for best sound effects editing and visual effects, Cameron noticed the change in the game:“All of a sudden, we were playing in the big league. So looking at it retrospectively, you know, [Gale] and I both feel that was more of our graduation, or breakthrough, than Terminator — even though Terminator’s the film that put us on the map."http://collider.com/alien-5-neill-blomkamp-canon/
