Prometheus 2 Confirmed As Ridley Scott’s Next Movie

When the first trailer for Ridley Scott’s The Martian was released it leaped onto everyone’s “Must See” list. A short time later, 20th Century Fox moved the release date up from late-November to early October. A joy for impatient moviegoers everywhere, but a scheduling bump like that can lead to headaches for a filmmaker as they get less time to polish their baby. Good thing Scott was done with the movie two weeks after shooting.

“I was already on to my next movie!” Scott told Empire Magazine. “I was starting to look for locations for my next movie, which is Prometheus 2.”

There yah go, Scott confirmed Prometheus 2 will be his next film. Filming for it is expected to commence in January of 2016.
