New Alien: Covenant Set Photo Released as Filming Wraps
Alien: Covenant has finally wrapped production, and a new set photo released for the occasion features director Ridley Scott and star Katherine Waterston.
There have been reports that Waterston's Daniels is not the "star" of the film, but rather part of an ensemble, but she certainly seems like a Ripley replacement. But more importantly: now that filming has officially wrapped, there's a chance that we might see some footage soon. The Alien franchise will have a huge presence at SDCC, including an Aliens reunion for the 30th anniversary, so it's possible we'll even be seeing the first teaser in the next few days.
