IESB have interviewed Fox producer, Tom Rothman, at the premiere of Fantastic Four and he made a small comment about Ridley Scott and Alien 5:
“Every time I see Ridley Scott he still talks about Alien so there’s always a possibility. I don’t think it’s near-turn, I think he has a couple of other movies he wants to do first, but we have a deal with Ridley and it’s always possible.”
