Ohjaaja Fede Álvarezin Alien: Romulus -elokuva pitäisi saada katsottavaksi elokuussa 2024. Nyt sen alkuperäisen Alienin ohjaaja Ridley Scott on nähnyt uuden rainan, ja ylistää jo nyt jälkeä.
Fede Álvarez puhui Guillermo del Toron kanssa DGA Latino Summit 2023 -tapahtumassa, josta raportoi Collider. Fede Álvarez halusi kuulla Ridley Scottin mielipiteen, ja saikin sellaisen.
"Even if he didn't ask for it, I was gonna go there and sit at a table and look at him and get it. Even if he was gonna say, 'You destroyed my legacy,' I wanted to be in front of him and see him in the eye. I didn't want to get an email where it says 'Ridley says...' And then he walks into the room and he did say, 'Fede, what can I say? It's fucking great."
"For me, it was like... My family knows it was one of the best moments of my life to have a master like him, whom I admired so much, to even watch a movie I made, but particularly something like this... and talk to me for an hour about what he liked about it. One of the best compliments he said was, 'The dialogue is great. Are you the writer?' Yes!"
