“There’s only ever the one. It’s like trying to do a sequel to ‘2001’. Fundamentally, you can’t. Really, with the greatest respect to ‘Star Wars,’ the best film by far is the one that George directed, right? By miles. It was unique. It was absolutely wonderful to me. It was the fairy story of all fairy stories in space. And to follow through is a tough call. So, same with ‘Alien’.

Interestingly enough, I was never asked to do the sequel. Maybe because I was such a tough guy when I was doing it they didn’t want me back. But I was also in the habit of not wanting to do a sequel then either. So I would never have done it.”

“Go on, leave that [the familiar elements] behind, and see where it can evolve. So we’re looking where we’re going to evolve.”

En même temps, les films Alien de Ridley Scott et Aliens de James Cameron sont difficiles à partager parce qu’ils sont très différents, le premier film est une sorte de huit-clos horrifique sous fond de science-fiction tandis que le second film est davantage un blockbuster d’action et même de guerre par moment.

Speaking with the LA Times, Ridley Scott explained what he thinks the franchise would need to do in order to move forward as well as survive:

“I still think there’s a lot of mileage in Alien, but I think you’ll have to now re-evolve. What I always thought when I was making it, the first one, why would a creature like this be made and why was it traveling in what I always thought was a kind of war-craft, which was carrying a cargo of these eggs. What was the purpose of the vehicle and what was the purpose of the eggs? That’s the thing to question — who, why, and for what purpose is the next idea, I think.”
