Blood will flow... Alien: Covenant is the sequel to Prometheus, the prequel to the first part of the Alien franchise, Ridley Scott's 1979 sci-fi horror film that answered too much and said too little. The creators of the sixth film from the Alien film franchise promise that the new Eighth Passenger will be much scarier than Prometheus. It is expected that it will not be suitable for adolescents.
In the movie Alien: Covenant is coming back Michael Fassbender (Shame, X-Men, Assassin's Creed), who will reprise his role as the android David. The director's tactician is waving again Ridley Scott (The Martian, The Exterminator, The Eighth Passenger) that goes back to its roots, not just because it has a movie many practical effects and real movie sets, but also about the story.
In the film, alongside Fassbender, who this time has a double role, as an android David and Walter, they are returning more Noomi Rapace and Guy Pearce, and among the newcomers I find names like James Franco, Katherine Waterston, Billy Crudup, Danny McBride and Demián Bichir. A big time jump and an almost completely new line-up they hint that it's a soft reboot of the franchise and not so much sequel to Prometheus. It will be otherwise the sixth film in the series The Eighth Passenger and the Third, directed by Ridley Scott. Xenomorphs they will sow death again.

Alien: Covenant is basically a sequel to Prometheus from 2012, which met with mixed reactions mainly from the point of view of delivering the story, but was mostly praised by viewers and critics visual sophistication and Fassbender's portrayal of David. Alien applies to genre classic, and people do curses on a spaceship we still haven't gotten tired of it today.
