ALIEN: COVENANT Issues a Warning

This is a public service announcement. 20th Century Fox has issued a warning on Twitter.

Run. 

The tweet itself contains little information other than a single date: May, 2017. Whatever it means, I'm praying for the best, but getting ready for the worst. 

In all seriousness, this appears to be an official teaser poster for Ridley Scott's upcoming Alien: Covenant, a film I am incredible excited about.

I know there are some around these parts who are not fans of Prometheus, but personally I relish the ambition of every new Alien installment, each one bringing new ideas and concerns to the saga. 

Synopsis: The crew of the colony ship Covenant discover what they think is an uncharted paradise, but it is actually a dark, dangerous world, whose sole inhabitant is the synthetic David, survivor of the doomed Prometheus expedition.

Alien: Covenant opens May 19, 2017.
