Damon Lindelof Rewriting ALIEN Prequel

Another breaking exclusive from Deadlinehollywood. This can only be a good thing -- as disappointing as LOST was at times during its final year (and badly written in spots too), at least there were ideas and stories there over the course of its run. If nothing else, it's certainly better than some other hack who could write the script!

Note Ridley Scott hasn't committed to directing this, not yet (he's producing it).

Can't say I'm glowing with confidence.

Lindelof is also currently writing the sequel to J.J. Abrams' STAR TREK with Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci, following their collaboration on Jon Favreau's COWBOYS AND ALIENS. Deadline reports that this prequel isn't necessarily going to be Scott's next movie, as he has a couple other options including GUCCI, which may team Scott with Angelina Jolie as Maurizio Gucci's ex-wife Patrizia Reggiani, an adaptation of Justin Cronin's THE PASSAGE, or THE WOLF OF WALL STREET, which would reteam Scott with Leonardo DiCaprio with Martin Scorsese producing.
