It’s a shame that director Neil Blomkamp (District 9) never got to make his Alien 5 movie. It looked like it was shaping up to be something awesome.

Sigourney Weaver and Michael Bean were both going to reprise their roles in the film and James Cameron and Weaver both said that they loved his script that Blomkamp wrote. The movie never happened, though, because Fox decided to focus on Ridley Scott‘s vision of the franchise. Scott even said that Blomkamp’s Alien 5 would “never see the light.”

We’ve already seen some really cool concept art from the film in the past, and now we’ve got more to share with you. This latest series of art comes from artist Geoffroy Thoorens, and Blomkamp ended up sharing his work on social media. AvP Galaxy also found a variety of other concept images for the project on Thoorens’ ArtStation page.

I would have loved to see this Alien 5 movie get made. For additional information on the film and what it could have been, click here.
