Well Dane said "every other main LA based fx house" is doing something in it. Kinda knew StudioGillis was going to be one of the shops since Alec reposted the Fede tease on Alien day... on a personal level I just have to hope their involvement isn't with big chap.
Although, whoever would be creating the Alien is bringing Dane Hallett's sketches to life, that will be their brief, to do that as accurately as possible, so that shouldn't be so hard to do... we all know Dane is incredible. That makes me pretty optimistic.
