"Prometheus" is the movie prequel to all of the Alien movies, and all of these movies were created and directed by Scott. Despite the mixed reviews from movie critics, Scott still insists on having the "Prometheus 2" movie filmed first. In fact, according to Coming Soon, he is quite busy searching for possible locations so that shooting can commence as soon as possible.

The pre-production for "Alien 5" however, is being taken care of by Neil Blomkamp, but one thing is for sure right now, Scott definitely wants "Prometheus 2" done before the next Alien flick. Scott is said to be assisting Blomkamp after he finalizes where the location for shooting of "Prometheus 2" will be.

Well, fans will just have to trust the master on this one. Scott also revealed that on the next Alien movie, viewers will understand who created humankind, and why these Aliens want to wipe out the entire humanity.
