Ridley Scott’s ALIEN: COVENANT Gets Official Name, Synopsis And First Logo

20th Century Fox has announced Ridley Scott’s return to the universe he created in ALIEN with ALIEN: COVENANT, the second chapter in a prequel trilogy that began with PROMETHEUS – and connects directly to Scott’s 1979 seminal work of science fiction.

According to the press release synopsis:

Bound for a remote planet on the far side of the galaxy, the crew of the colony ship Covenant discovers what they think is an uncharted paradise, but is actually a dark, dangerous world — whose sole inhabitant is the “synthetic” David (Michael Fassbender), survivor of the doomed Prometheus expedition.

2012’s PROMETHEUS brought in $403.4 million globally and received an Oscar nomination for Best Visual Effects at the 85th Academy Awards.

ALIEN: COVENANT will be released in cinemas on October 6th, 2017.
