Last year saw the premiere of the sci-fi horror film Alien: Romulus by Fede Alvarez. Recently, the director revealed that he's already thinking about ideas for a sequel. According to him, he wants to create something entirely new.
Rodo Sayagues and I are working on that right now. We're excited about where it can go. We’ve almost checked all of the boxes of things that I want to see [in Romulus], and brought back a lot of the things I hadn't seen in a while. Wherever we go now, we can go into uncharted waters. I think it'll be so exciting to go with characters you know from this movie, to a place in the Alien franchise that we've never been before, and to discover things that you've never seen before.
The mistake usually with sequels is to make them because you can, and because of the success of Romulus, we definitely can make a sequel. But I wouldn't do it unless we have a really good idea for it, something that’s worthy of the title.
Thus, director Fede Alvarez made it clear that he's ready to take on a Romulus sequel only if he comes up with truly interesting ideas for it.
For reference, with a budget of $80 million, Alien: Romulus grossed $350.9 million. Its IMDb rating stands at 7.1.
