Ridley Scott: There Will Be No Xenomorph in Prometheus 2
According to an exclusive news by Yahoo! Movies UK, Ridley Scott has said that xenomorph --the slimy, acid-haemorrhaging monstrosities from the Alien movies-- is done. It means that the hideous creatures will not be back in the forthcoming sequel to 2012’s Prometheus.

Ridley Scott said to Yahoo Movies UK:
"The beast is done. Cooked," he says simply. "I got lucky meeting Giger all those years ago. It's very hard to repeat that. I just happen to be the one who forced it through because they said it's obscene. They didn't want to do it and I said, 'I want to do it, it's fantastic'. But after four [he has conveniently forgotten the 'AvP' movies], I think it wears out a little bit. There's only so much snarling you can do. I think you've got to come back with something more interesting. And I think we've found the next step. I thought the Engineers were quite a good start."

He also confirmed that he had met with Harrison Ford to discuss plans for a long-mooted sequel to 1982’s Blade Runner – though he noted that the actor is currently busy with Star Wars: Episode VII.
