Ridley Scott has spoken out about not being asked to direct the Alien or Blade Runner sequels – and says he wasn't happy about it.
"I was slow out the starting gate," Scott told Vanity Fair. "I mean, I should have done the sequels to Alien and to Blade Runner. You change over the years. At that time, I didn't want to go through it again. So Jim Cameron came in – and then David Fincher – on Alien." Cameron directed 1986's Aliens, while Fincher helmed 1992's Alien 3. Denis Villeneuve took the reins for Blade Runner 2049, which was released in 2017.
