Still, there is one way to do it that feelssomewhatplausible.
Despite believing himself above David,Weyland had created a superior being with his android son.
With maintenance, David is functionally immortal and is faster, stronger and smarter than any human being.
DespiteCovenanttaking place a decade afterPrometheus, David hadn’t aged a day.
Covenant’sending was supposed to set up a third prequel dubbedAlien: Awakening,which was later canceled.
If so,perhaps Ripley 8 will eventually track David down to end his designs once and for all.
His story is incomplete, and the upcomingAlien: Romulus 2is unlikely to change that.
Still, a Ripley vs David movie would feel undeniably epic.
That said,Alien: Romulus 2seems to be moving in a very different direction.
The film was directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet and written by Joss Whedon.

The Alien franchise, which began with Ridley Scott’s 1979 film, is a Sci-Fi series comprised of several horror films, games, and comic books centered on humanity’s encounters with a hostile extraterrestrial species known as Xenomorphs. Characterized by their lethal prowess and capability to reproduce at an alarming rate, these creatures pose a profound threat to human existence. The primary series protagonist, Ellen Ripley, acts as the voice of reason as she seeks to keep the creatures out of the hands of greed-driven corporate scientists.
After dying in Alien 3, Sigourney Weaver is back as Ellen Ripley for the fourth film in the Alien franchise. In Alien: Resurrection, a human/alien hybrid clone of Ripley prevents aliens from coming to Earth with the help of a band of space pirates. The film was directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet and written by Joss Whedon.
