The last few years have been full of ups and downs for Ridley Scott, the sci-fi savant best known for his work on films such as Alien, Blade Runner, and Gladiator. Scott has been on hiatus from the sci-fi genre for almost 10 years after he last directed Alien: Covenant, the sequel to his Alien prequel film, Prometheus (starring Michael Fassbender). Scott’s last directorial feature came at the end of 2024 when he returned to the colosseum for Gladiator II, but the omission of Russell Crowe was hard for some fans to look past, and the film struggled at the box office under the weight of its bloated $250 million budget. Scott is sorely due for a box office hit, but only time will tell if his return to sci-fi with The Dog Stars will provide that, or if he’ll have to wait for his next feature outing.
