Ridley Scott Reviews, Interviews & More
June 8 isn't that far away, but until then expect to be inundated with clips and trailers for the upcoming, R-rated Ridley Scott epic Prometheus. The latest from the film isn't that spoiler-y, but it does show off the effects work that went into the movie, and Idris Elba's accent. Check it out.
It seems like every day there’s been a new bit of media released to promote The Avengers, The Dark Knight Rises, The Amazing Spider-Man, or Prometheus as the Big Summer Film of 2012. Today, it’s once again Prometheus’ turn, with Entertainment Weekly releasing 17—count ‘em, 17!—new photos from the filming of...
Prometheus may be R rated, but it's gunning to be one of the big event films of the summer, and the advertising and viral videos are now hitting the frequency of Avengers material. Perhaps it's a winning strategy. The latest from the Prometheus cast and crew concerns extra terrestrials. An interesting word...
After 2008’s Hellboy II: The Golden Army, director Guillermo Del Toro's next project was set to be the ambitious cinematic adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft’s At the Mountains of Madness, a 1936 novella about human scientists discovering evidence of ancient alien civilizations visiting Earth. Unfortunately, Universal cancelled the project,...
A scary Prometheus audio clip has been discovered in the lead-up to the June 8th release of Ridley Scott’s much anticipated new sci-fi thriller - and the excitement continues to build as more of its deepest, darkest secrets are revealed.
For a while there you could say that Ridley Scott's Prometheus was playing cute. It was embracing one of J.J. Abrams's favorite marketing schemes - the puzzle box - where part of the fun was not knowing what the film exactly was until you got into the theater. That game plan has been modified for marketing recently, and now we're getting a clearer sense of what the...
Welcome to the exact moment when Ridley Scott’s upcoming Prometheus ceased to be the ambiguous sci-fi mystery of the summer, and revealed just about every possible plot spoiler pertaining to its Alien prequel-dom that it seemingly possibly could. Thanks to a just-released international trailer, we now have three full minutes that basically lay...
Ridley Scott’s Prometheus is currently running neck and neck (or space helmet and bat-cowl, if you like) with The Dark Knight Rises for the title of Most Mysterious Action Film of Summer 2012. More and more plot elements, both leaked and featured in the excellently spooky trailer, indicate that Prometheus is a full-on prequel to Scott’s 1979 sci-fi horror...
There are any number of reasons to want to be at the WonderCon in Anaheim this weekend: the bevy of comic book writers and artists in attendance, the sneak peeks at new TV shows (like this one for The Secret Circle), hobnobbing with fellow pop culture nerds, you name it. That said, there is one reason above all others—to view the IMAX trailer for Ridley Scott’s...
It's worth taking this with a grain of salt, but Twitchfilm is reporting that Harrison Ford may take a role in Ridley Scott's Blade Runner spin-off. Though they don't have direct quotes - and the story may be updated later in the day - it suggests a direct sequel, which has not been what anyone's said in the past. In fact, Scott said it would have none of the original...
Quick of cut and huge of scale, the trailer for Ridley Scott's Prometheus ties the film into his 1979 film Alien in two distinct ways. One is the lettering that comes as we get quick flashes of cast members Michael Fassbender, Charlize Theron, Noomi Rapace and Idris Elba. The other is a certain prop that looks mighty familiar to fans of the...
Ridley Scott's Prometheus is and isn't a sequel/prequel to his 1979 film Alien. And though it may not feature Alien creatures as we know them from the previous installments, from the latest images to come from the film it's going to have the same look and feel that's for sure. The film is due out June, 8 2012, but the first wave of publicity...
Oh, Ridley Scott. Ridley has had a number of film in development for a while, but it seems he's been getting the most traction on follow ups to his older films. Prometheus is due out summer 2012, but recently he's been talking up his continuation of the Blade Runner universe, and as he tells the Wall Street Journal it's going to be a sequel...
Ridley Scott and Alcon Entertainment are now pursuing a sequel (perhaps in name only) to Blade Runner, the 1982 film which was received poorly upon initial release. This looks to follow Prometheus, Scott's most recent project, and a spin-off of his 1979 film Alien. Little is known about the project in terms of the...
This afternoon in Comic Con's Hall H, screenwriter and Lost co-creator Damon Lindeloff, joined by star Charlize Theron, presented a short behind the scenes look at Ridley Scott's much rumored Prometheus. The panel also included a special visit live via satellite from Sir Ridley himself, as well as cast member Noomi Rapace, all the way from the movie's set in Iceland. To...
Though Ridley Scott is hard at work on his sort of prequel, sort of spin-off Alien film Prometheus, that's not stopping him from lining up his next project. Currently he and his producing partner Giannina Facio have hired screenwriter Jeffrey Caine to turn Gertrude Bell's life into a film. Brittish-born Bell is most famous...
The cast of Ridley Scott's Prometheus continues to grow with the addition of three new actors. According to Mail Online, Idris Elba, Sean Harris and Kate Dickie have all signed on to co-star in the film. They also learned a little more about the tone of the movie from the director himself who spoke to the site about the upcoming...
Hearing that the Scott Brothers have produced a film of entirely of user-submitted content means one of two things -- this is going to be a complete, chaotic mess, with random thoughts, and scattered ideas that don't lead up to anything OR this is a film that will change cinema as we know it and absolutely shock and amaze audiences. For me there was really no in between. So what was it.......
The Hollywood studios continue to play a game of release date shuffle. Last week we learned that Frankenweenie and John Carter of Mars' respective dates had been moved, and now according to Heat Vision John Carter's has been changed again. This time, the decision has to do with Ridley Scott's upcoming sci-fi epic...
After months of waiting, the premiere of Kevin Macdonald and Ridley Scott's ambitious project Life in a Day is almost here.

YouTube has announced that the movie will appear on the site later this month, where it will steam...
