Now that shooting is underway, there have been some very interesting pictures dropping for Ridley Scott's follow-up to PROMETHEUS. The man seems intent on delivering what's arguably an unwarranted sequel, so perhaps the following might pave the way for a little excitement? Below we have a behind-the-scenes photo taken of Katherine Waterston's character, Daniels, on the set of COVENANT. It was released on social media with the hashtag 'Nowhere to run'! As can be expected with a Ridley Scott film, the set looks amazing! Check it out!

I actually really dug PROMETHEUS, despite its flaws, and while I'm not exactly pumped to see COVENANT, I'm curious to know why Ridley Scott was so keen on returning to this universe. Not only that, but also why Noomi Rapace's character seems to be completely out of the picture. I suppose the fact we have questions is a good first step! Now if they ditch the dumb scientists and the poor old-age make-up, we may have a solid flick on our hands!
ALIEN: COVENANT is scheduled to hit theaters on August 4, 2017.
