Back in September, Ridley Scott ruled out the possibility of the Xenomorph making an appearance in Prometheus 2, and now the filmmaker has been speaking a little more about the sci-fi sequel, stating that he intends on reintroducing “a fresher form of alien.”
[Prometheus 2] is fresh and getting away from gods and dragons and shit,” Scott tells The Australian. “If I see one more dragon I’m going to shoot myself. Stop the dragons. [The original Alien] is the definitive dragon and he’s a motherf*cker. The alien’s real which is why it’s probably one of the scariest monsters in film history. So with Prometheus 2 what I’m trying to do is reintroduce a fresher form of alien in the third act.”

As yet, there’s no word on a potential start date for Prometheus 2, with Scott set to film The Martian following promotional duties on Exodus: Gods and Kings. However, both Noomi Rapace and Michael Fassbender are expected to return.
