I would have liked to see him in a major film again.
I'm not going to write this off completely just yet. That article basically just repeats what we already knew, Prometheus 2 is coming out first. If it happens it was gonna be a few years from now anyway. Blomkamp merely says that he's going to work on something else in the meantime. It may indeed transpire that he himself just gives up on it but he hasn't said that yet.
So, what slikkerias said.
Chappie flopped hard. That's two duds in a row. Fox no longer has faith in Blomkamp and Scott *allegedly* told them to keep him away from the franchise, if they want to progress it properly into the future. Hence the retitling of Prometheus 2 to include the word Alien. To realign it with the original series.
The only person who was keeping this Aliens sequel dream alive via twitter, was Blomkamp. Scott put his foot down and said cancel this or I'm Scott Free.
Allegedly.
