I think that we all new that this had to happen, because if not 

I believe the movie would have just got as much hate as 

Prometheus, although Prometheus did gross more than 

$400 million worldwide. The problem with Prometheus and

what disappointed myself and many over devoted Alien fans 

was that the movie did not feature the franchise original 

creature design. 

But that is not going to be the case with the upcoming 

Alien: Covenant. 

Director Ridley Scott tells The Wrap that this movie will 

definitely bring back H.R. Giger's popular Xenomorph in it's 

many terrifying forms.   

“We’ll have them all,” Scott promises, “Egg, face-hugger, chest-burster, then the big boy.”

Alien: Covenant is set to be the second chapter in a prequel 

trilogy, that will eventually tie in with the 1979 horror classic 

Alien. 

This is what Scott had to say on the plot of Alien: Covenant

“They’re going to go to the planet where the engineers came from,” Scott continues, “and come across the evolving creature that they had made. Why did they make it? Why would they make such a terrifying beast? It felt bio-mechanoid, it felt like a weapon. And so the movie will explain that, and reintroduce the alien back into it.”

Alien: Covenant will hit the theatres on October 7th 2017.
