Legendary Pictures and Warner Brothers have chosen a director for their battle of the titans movie Godzilla vs. Kong.

Adam Wingard, best known for his work directing horrors/thrillers You’re Next, The Guest, Blair Witch, and segments of V/H/S, V/H/S/2, and The ABCs of Death, has signed on to helm the movie.

The ending for Prometheus left the door open for sequels and a possible direct bridge to the Alien franchise. But because of its lackluster performance at the box office, development on the sequel has been slow going. Then came word that Neill Blomkamp would direct Alien 5, stirring up rumors that Prometheus 2 could also be on its way to actually going into production.

While it is far from a confirmation, a new interview reveals that Ridley Scott may actually start shooting Prometheus 2 in January. More on this story below.

It’s been a while since we’ve heard about the planned Battlestar Galactica movie being developed over at Universal Pictures. Bryan Singer was attached to direct at one point, and A Mighty Heart screenwriter John Orloff was working on the script.

Things were quiet for a while after that, but with word that a new writer has been hired to work on the screenplay new life has been breathed into the project. Universal has tapped Transcendence writer Jack Paglen to work on the script.
