This past weekend, Ridley Scott attended the Toronto International Film Festival for the premiere of his latest film, "The Martian." But aside from that, Scott is also working with another soon to be released film, "Prometheus 2."
Recently, the movie was covered with mere speculations. "Prometheus 2" most definitely remained a mystery, with scarce details as to what exactly will happen or will it pick up the conclusion of the first movie. Aside from the return of Michael Fassbender as David, an android, Scott also hinted that the upcoming film will be the spinoff of the previous blockbuster movie as reported on Den of Geek. It will answer the lingering questions left from the ending.
However, Collider reported that it was uncertain if the script was concluded or if it is still being edited. Scott also revealed who the real Engineers are, "It starts off with a very grand idea-or a grand question, really,' he said and what's the purpose of their terrible creations. "Who are they and why did they create such evil biology and bacteriology? And [in creating], to protect themselves from what? So the questions are answered there, or rather, beginning to be answered in Prometheus 2," he stated.
In terms of the casts, Cinemablend reported that both Noomi Rapace and Fassbender are on the way to playing their roles again. So, this implies that both of them are the only survivors in the previous movie. According to the movie director, there are several drafts on the loose but the latest script is under Michael Green's hands.
Though it was not specified whether the script has been completed, reports say that the movie will be filmed in Australia or in Canada. Reports say that the production will start in February so, probably, details will come buzzing up the internet in the next few months.
Unless Scott wants the movie to be Michael Fassbender's standalone film, the casting procedures will slowly be filled out and the movie plot will be solved. Stay tuned for more updates.
