Ridley Scott to Direct "Alien Prequel"

According to "Variety", Ridley Scott is set to direct an "Alien" prequel for 20th Century Fox. An excerpt from the article follows:

"The film is set up to be a prequel to the groundbreaking 1979 film that Scott directed. It will precede that film, in which the crew of a commercial towing ship returning to Earth is awakened and sent to respond to a distress signal from a nearby planetoid. The crew discovers too late that the signal generated by an empty ship was meant to warn them."

Jon Spaihts has been hired to write the script.
