The filmmaker confirms the project is not a standalone, but rather connects to the other films in the franchise: "I love all of those movies. I didn't want to omit or ignore any of them."

Fede talks about using practical effects and animatronics in this interview and I love it.

He does say of course there's CG but he really want to do as much practical as possible.

I'm here for it.

Ridley Scott and James Cameron-Approved Prequel
