Geekery: Alien Covenant – Last Supper

Get to know the characters that will die horrifically in the new Alien movie.

This 5 minute prologue – it’s not a scene from the movie – was directed by Luke Scott, Ridley’s son. It shows the last meal shared by the crew of the Covenant before they enter hyper sleep…

The movie has a larger number of potential hosts than Prometheus, and it has more of a Nostromo feel to it. I appreciate the charater development as we didn’t get a bunch of that in the last jaunt into the franchise. Whether it can capture what makes the original a classic or not will be seen when it hits theaters May 19th.
