Earlier this year, Brian Duffield, writer and director of the alien invasion thriller "No One Can Save You" and the hit survivor thriller "Whalefall," was reportedly in talks to write and direct a new installment in the "Alien" franchise for 20th Century. However, it has since been clarified that he is not involved in the production.
During an interview with TheWrap about "Whalefall," Duffield confirmed that he did assist with the script for the upcoming "Alien" movie, but only for a few weeks over Christmas. He emphasized that he is not currently involved in the project and has not been asked to direct or write. Duffield expressed his enthusiasm for the franchise and its actors but stated that he does not think he would want to be a part of the new "Alien" movie.
The exploration of the "Alien" franchise continues under the direction of Ridley Scott, with Michael Fassbender reprising his role as the android character Walter.
