Re: Hot Toys: Prometheus
I thought they said this ISN'T an Alien Prequel.
From what I recall, Ridley Scott and his team were working on it initially as an Alien Prequel, but then got wrapped up in so many ideas and directions they could go that they ultimately said that this movie will be a stand-alone and NOT based on the Alien Universe. They didn't want to be confined by the Alien Prequel premise and decided to just make Prometheus its own movie.
They said that there will be "pieces" that show it has some roots with the ALIEN universe and fans will see "touches" of it, but the movie is NOT an Alien Prequel nor is it tied to the Alien Universe (as far as I know).
Unless that has changed, that's the last I recall being said.
