Two Guys in a Balcony

Join us this week as we wrap up the Alien film franchise! This week we dive into the final two movies, Prometheus and Alien: Covenant. Prometheus is a 2012 British-American science fiction film directed by Ridley Scott and starring Noomi Rapace, Michael Fassbender, Guy Pearce, Idris Elba, Logan Marshall-Green and Charlize Theron. Written by Jon Spaihts and Damon Lindelof, the story takes place in the late 21st century and centers on the crew of the spaceship Prometheus as they follow a star map discovered among the remnants of several ancient Earth cultures. Led to a distant world and an advanced civilization, the crew seeks the origins of humanity but instead discovers a threat that could cause the extinction of the human race.

It is a sequel to the 2012 film Prometheus, taking place roughly ten years later,[1] and follows the colony ship Covenant, bound for a remote planet on the far side of the galaxy. Upon landing, the crew discover what they think is an uncharted paradise, inhabited solely by the android David, survivor of the ill-fated Prometheus expedition. However, the planet is soon revealed to be far more dangerous than they could ever have imagined. (Xenopedia)
