Alien: Covenant's Katherine Waterston has nowhere to run in first image

20th Century Fox gave us 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:an official first look at 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Alien: Covenant during last month's Alien Day, showing off a brand new crew patch. It was nice teaser to let us know pro🀅duction had kicked off on Ridley Scott's next xenomorphic jaunt, the first in a series of movies that will eventually connect to the original 19🌠79 Alien. While the specifics of how this new trilogy plans to catch up to that first film remain under wraps, we at least know of one continuing trend: ass-kicking female leads.
Today, another photo has been released from the set, offering a first glimpsᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚe at 🌳one of the new crew members destined to tussle with those creatures. Meet your new Ripley, aka Daniels:
, and shows 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Katherine Waterston's character hunkered down in a dark, shadow-filled corridor. The biggest takeawa🎐y is how much she resembles the leading heroines from previous movies in the Alien series. Short-cropped hair, grubby vest, and a large firearm resting against her leg: she's got a lot in common with Ellen Ripley. There's even a hint of Noomi Rapace's Shaw character from Prometheus.When Scott changed his initial plans for the film to become more Alien-centric (and less of a straight Prometheus sequel) Rapace's character was given the boot. Covenant will instead focus on an entirely new crew led by Waterston who venture to a planet where the android David is tinkering with Engineer technology. So you know, expect 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:plenty of xenomorphs.
Di🍬rected by Ridley Scott and starring Katherine Waterston, Michael Fassbender, Demian Bichir, Carmen Ejogo, Jussie Smollett, Amy Seimetz, Callie Hernandez and Danny McBride, Alien: Covenant will open in the US on October 4, 2017 with ꦓa UK date still to be determined.
