Movie News Ridley Scott Talks Sequels to Prometheus and Blade Runner ADD COMMENTS

Prometheus was one of the more controversial films of the summer, but for many fans it left them wanting more. While the sequel isn't exactly a sure thing, director Ridley Scott spoke with Metro about what the proposed film would be.

"Prometheus evolved into a whole other universe. You�ve got a person [Noomi Rapace�s Elizabeth Shaw] with a head in a bag [ Michael Fassbender�s David] that functions and has an IQ of 350. It can explain to her how to put the head back on the body and she�s gonna think about that long and hard because, once the head is back on his body, he�s dangerous," he said.

When asked if the film was that easy, he replied,  "I wish it was that easy. They�re going off to paradise but it could be the most savage, horrible place. Who are the Engineers?"

The subject then switched to Blade Runner, which Scott has also been very vocal about sequelizing as well. He said:  "It�s not a rumour � it�s happening. With Harrison Ford? I don�t know yet. Is he too old? Well, he was a Nexus-6 so we don�t know how long he can live [laughs]. And that�s all I�m going to say at this stage."

What do you think? Would you like to see sequels to Blade Runner and  Prometheus?

Total Film: The Modern Guide to The Movies Prometheus Blu-ray special features confirmed

Prometheus was one of this year’s most talked about films (over here, particularly), so the special features on the home entertainment release are something we’ve been keeping our eyes peeled for.

Well, the full list of extras has been announced, and it’s looking like an impressive bounty, particularly if you’re getting the 3D Blu-ray.

Here’s the full list of special features on each format (3D BD, BD, DVD):

Prometheus DVD

We also found out that the deleted scenes are titled ‘Our first alien',‘Strange bed fellows’, and ‘We’re not alone anymore’, which doesn't give a huge amount away but is intriguing nonetheless.

What really caught our interest is the fact that the movie itself is specifically referred to as the theatrical cut. Is this an unsubtle hint to tell us that a director’s cut is on its way at some point in the future? We can but speculate...

Prometheus is available on Blu-ray 3D Collector’s Edition, Blu-ray and DVD from 8 October 2012. Our Christmas list is swelling already…
