Even ‘Covenant’ Star Katherine Waterston Still Has No Idea What’s Happening With ‘Alien’
With the recent Disney acquisition of 20th Century Fox, and in the wake of Alien: Covenant not exactly being a huge hit at the box office, the future of the Alien franchise is hanging in the balance right now, with no plans in motion for a new film. Will the next one be a full-on reboot or a continuation of Ridley Scott’s prequel franchise? We don’t know.
As it turns out, Katherine Waterston, who of course played new main character Daniels in Alien: Covenant (a sort of rebooted Ellen Ripley), doesn’t know either.
“I have no idea [what’s happening with Alien],” Waterston just told Metro, ahead of this week’s Alien Day. “I always feel as though the actors are the last to know. But I also feel as though I could have a great deal to do in that film, or just be rolled out in a body bag. I had heard some rumors about where it might go a long time ago that were really interesting to me and my character.”
“But I haven’t heard anything in ages,” she added.
Following in the wake of Winnie the Pooh and Mickey Mouse getting their own horror movies, Hans Christian Andersen’s The Little Mermaid is the next to get the twisted treatment.
Originally published in 1837, the original tale of The Little Mermaid is now in the public domain, and MSR Media International presents their own horror version of the tale this year.
The Little Mermaid is being distributed by Grindstone Entertainment Group, and the film has officially been rated “R” this week for “Language, some violence and brief nudity.”
In the film from director Leigh Scott, “Dr. Eric Prince, an archaeologist, makes a dramatic discovery on a small Caribbean island—proof of an ancient, advanced prehistoric society. While his dig is in progress, he meets the mysterious and beautiful Aurora Bey and falls in love. Her arrival coincides with several mermaid sightings and strange disappearances.
“When Eric’s friend and mentor, Dr. Ashley, arrives on the island, Ashley uncovers the true identity of Aurora and the dangers of the hidden evil inside Eric’s dig site. Will Eric heed his friend’s advice, or will he be blinded by love and the power of the siren, allowing the world to fall to the forces of evil?”
Lydia Helen, Mike Markoff and Jeff Denton star in The Little Mermaid.
You can watch the trailer now over on MSR Media International’s website.
