The word from the company was that unless you got the writer and director of the original "Alien", everyone can go fish. So with the writer/producer of "Alien" sitting in (someone')s office, I guess he who shall remain nameless thought it was his time to strike.

Apparently Ridley Scott has seen the materials before. And subsequently passed on doing it. But, with "Halo 2" sales having been astronomical, Shusett and Alter's camp has been in-touch with Scott Free about it. Don't know if Ridley's budged..."
