Alien Prequels Release Pushed Back

[Corporal Hicks]

According to Scriptflags the release of both parts of the prequel have been pushed back:

“Ridley Scott’s Alien Prequel #1 & #2 have both been pushed back a full twelve months to 2013 & 2014. There has been no official explanation from Fox or Scott’s camp. This comes two months after their first publicized fallout over budgetary and rating criteria.”

The article doesn’t state any sources however. Thanks to Shasvre for the news.

I've emailed Fox to see what they have to say.

Ridley like Cameron shoot in 3D  hahahaha end of the world

[Bio Mech Hunter]

Ugh... no doubt Fox's discrepancy with Ridley has something to do with this. *facepalm*

Honestly, this is probably for the best. 2012 already has "The Dark Knight Rises", as well as Legendary's take of Godzilla (among tons of other super hero films). It's probably best it's pushed back, and of course, to make sure it's actually awesome, and not a rush job.

Take your time, do it right.

Ideally it'd be relesed BEFORE doomsday.

[blackhawk]

I agree with Mr. Clemens....if your gonna take your time then do it right and don't rush!!!

I don't mind waiting if the end result is something special which as long as Scott stays with this project I believe it will be.

Uhg... This sucks.    I was hoping this will come out somewhere in 2011 or 2012 or something. Oh well...

[the truth]

The studio pushed it back cause they need alot more time to nail down the settings and create the stages where this will be shot.
And this then will free up a slot of time for PREDATORS 2 which the studio says is gearing up for a 2011/2012 release
Rodriguez has finished the story and is looking for writers he hopes to start filming after he finishes the MACHETE sequel called MACHETE KILLS which filming should begin shortly Danny Trejo confirmed Rodriguez has finished the story and will film a.s.a.p.

Well, we might remember Ridley stating that although he has two prequels in mind, he's only focusing on getting the first one out rather than being able to talk about the second one coming out

[wmmvrrvrrmm]

As far as I'm concerned, Shasvre ought to have shoved it back where it came from rather than inform this sight about it, whether there's any truth behind this vague rumour in the report or not.
