Longtime “Alien” franchise screenwriter and producer Walter Hill (“48 Hours“) has revealed that Disney isn’t too keen on his “Alien 5” spec script — or in bringing back Sigourney Weaver‘s iconic hero Ellen Ripley for a legacy sequel.
The “Alien” franchise is in an interesting place at the moment. Not only are we getting an Earthbound prequel series from Noah Hawley (“Legion,” “Fargo”), but a new streaming feature film from horror director Fede Alvarez (“Evil Dead,” “The Girl In The Spider’s Web”) is on tap at Hulu (both projects are being produced by Ridley Scott).
