So he's had an 'informal' chat with someone at Fox regarding an unfinished script which makes Biehn the authority on what the content of the now delayed movie is going to be about.
Gotcha. Sounds like he's just trolling the fans now.

Come on Winde, I explained it in the news post. Biehn hasn't read the script but he said back in August at an event I was at that he'd been spoken to by Blomkamp, telling him the intent and story behind the project.
If he's discussed those details with you without signing a Non Disclosure Agreement, then there's no Project to speak of. He's just mouthing off. Casual conversations between Directors and Actors happen all the time. They mean nothing until signatures are committed to paper and contracts are signed.
If there was an NDA signed, then he lacks Professsional credibility by openly talking to you, especially to someone who moderates a forum on a popular website.
The only caveat I can see here is that he has signed an NDA and can discuss
specific details only, which is a dubious option that rarely occurs in any NDA, especially one of a corporate nature. On a Project of this nature, those rules are outlined extensively and without exception. Such caveats are best left off of any documentation, especially large corporate Projects of this nature, because it's easier to control content being discussed about.
In short, just because he spoke to you, it doesn't mean a thing. Possibly even less so because he
did talk to you.
My apologies for my skepticism but I've seen too many good opportunities within this series go south to feel confident with the very questionable comments made by someone only tangentially associated with a (delayed) Project. There's been too much 'He said this...' 'He said that...' throughout the years by too many people involved in various projects resulting in non-events and failings. Even Scott can't make up what his next movie is going to be called and He's the Man in Charge of that Project. I'm expected to accept the word of an actor who hasn't been signed up for any part(s), read the script and possibly not even signed an NDA?
You should have asked him that. "Have you signed any NDA's about this Project, Michael?" Because that's the most revealing question anyone can ask.
