- 0:03Speaker 2: As glamorous as Hollywood can be, there are more than
- 0:05Speaker 2: a few highly coveted but grueling jobs, and directing movies
- 0:08Speaker 2: is one of those. They can be particularly taxing.
- 0:11Speaker 3: We're talking years invested on one project alone with crazy
- 0:15Speaker 3: long days where every single decision goes through you.
- 0:18Speaker 1: Which is why Ridley Scott, the brains behind legendary movies
- 0:21Speaker 1: like Blade Runner, Gladiator, Alien, Thelma and Louise, still announcing
- 0:26Speaker 1: new big movies at 88 years old is so inspiring.
- 0:31Speaker 2: He's got a new sci-fi movie that just came out
- 0:32Speaker 2: called The Dog Stars and is going to tackle his
- 0:34Speaker 2: version of the iconic story Treasure Island with Hugh Jackman next.
- 0:38Speaker 2: But while promoting Dog Stars, he just announced another alien movie.
- 0:41Speaker 2: The guy does not stop.
- 0:43Speaker 3: Yeah, this is going to be the third prequel to
- 0:45Speaker 3: the original Alien, focusing on Michael Fassbender's character David, a
- 0:49Speaker 3: malfunctioning android in Alien, coming in.
- 0:52Speaker 2: And at this point, Ridley could obviously retire with nothing
- 0:55Speaker 2: to prove. Let's not forget he's got a Best Picture
