RS : In broad terms, It's something for those folks that want to see Ridley's Journey come full circle and..

FW: Do you know when this will happen?
RS : Fox are waiting to see how Aliens vs Predator does, and then they'll do the Alien movie, and I believe a Predator film too. Again, if I'm involved in it, great, if not, then that's luck of the draw."
