Fede Alvarez, who in 2013 The evil dead and Don’t breathe, directed from a script he wrote together with Rod Sayagues. Ridley Scott — who directed the original 1979 film Stranger as well as the series’ Prometheus (2012) and Alien: The Covenant (2017) entries — is a producer on the film.
Alvarez said Entertainment Weekly “he wanted to go back to his roots, at the time of the first film”, and that this sequel “takes place a few years” after the original film.
