Director Ridley Scott has assured that most of the questions will be answered as he revealed more plot details about "Prometheus 2" and its connection to "Alien."

During a press conference in Sydney, as reported by The Hollywood Reporter, Ridley Scott said that "Prometheus 2," which has been renamed "Alien: Covenant" would be the start of a trilogy and at the end of the franchise, hopefully they would be able to link the story to the 1979 film, "Alien."

The main thesis for the films would be: what are xenomorphs and what's their genesis? Who are the engineers?

"It's a very complex story. It's an evolution of what I first did with Prometheus 1," he said.

Ridley Scott went on to add, "Prometheus 1 was born out of my frustration that on Alien 1 in 1979 - I only did one as I don't normally do sequels. I was amazed that in the three that followed that no one asked the question: "Why the Alien, who made it and why?" Very basic questions. So I came up with the notion of Prometheus 1, which starts to indicate who might have made it and where it came from."

The synopsis reveals some details about the plot of "Prometheus 2" or "Alien Covenant." It reads, "Bound for a remote planet on the far side of the galaxy, the crew of the colony ship Covenant discovers what they think is an uncharted paradise, but is actually a dark, dangerous world -- whose sole inhabitant is the "synthetic" David (Michael Fassbender), survivor of the doomed Prometheus expedition."

"So I'm now going to the next one, which is the next evolution directly connected with the first one, which was this Shaw, when he replaced Michael Fassbender in two pieces and we'll kind of pick it up there and it will evolve," Ridley Scott added. "When that's finished there'll be another one and then another one, which will gradually drive into the back entrance of the film in 1979."
