  I’m case you are honestly asking, it came out in August. Aliens: Romulus

    Romulus is not a prequel though

    Oh, I didn’t think that was it.

    I thought Ridley Scott was supposed to direct all 3 prequels and that Romulus was set after Alien 3

      I think the chronology doesn’t make it less of a trilogy, even if confusing.

      Not sure about him supposedly directing them out just being involved was intended.

      I think he just wanted to be get involved more in the direction of the franchise but am not certain

        Huh. Yeah I haven’t followed it that closely, but I seem to remember talk around the releases of those movies that they were part of a trilogy of Ridley Scott directed prequels.

        Maybe I’m misremembering, and I haven’t seen Romulus yet, but it doesn’t seem like part of that trilogy from the trailers. 🤷‍♂️
