Thanks to Forum member daliens for bringing this to our attention! We're reaching out to our own studio sources for clarification concerning all this news and if we hear back we'll be sure to update you as soon as possible! This new report definitely adds a dose of confusion regarding the state and fate of Alien: Covenant 2. How could this be? Was Scott misleading us by hyping up a sequel whose script was not even completed? Or are BMD's sources merely addressing the rumors around the Alien: Awakening title? If the Covenant sequel script was not titled Awakening then they would be correct ( Alien: Awakening was originally thought to be the title for Blomkamp's Alien 5 project). It is only to say that the rumors re: Logan’s Alien: Awakening draft are inaccurate, and that it hasn’t been written. This is not to say that things aren’t happening behind-the-scenes on the Alien franchise (they definitely are), or that a Covenant sequel might not happen somewhere up the road. Yesterday, upon seeing the latest Alien: Awakening story, I was able to confirm – via a source who’s certainly in a position to know – that there is no Alien: Awakening script at this time. Just recently we also learned the setting for Covenant 2 was going to be LV-426 as well, but following this news hitting the web, are reporting that reliable sources close to the studio have claimed that there is no script for Alien: Awakening! Scott talked at length about how confident he and John Logan were with where the sequel was headed, revealing numerous plot details. During Alien: Covenant's press rounds last year, director Ridley Scott touted that the script for its sequel (potentially titled Alien: Awakening) was already finished (written by John Logan) and ready to go.
