Ridley Scott’s Sci-Fi Masterpiece Is Quietly Surging Before 8-Part Sequel Series

Ridley Scott finally returned to the sci-fi genre earlier this year with The Dog Stars, but despite it being his first sci-fi film in almost 10 years, there wasn’t much demand for the movie. Scott enlisted some major stars, including Josh Brolin, Jacob Elordi, and even Margaret Qualley to headline The Dog Stars, but the film didn’t even scrounge together $30 million at the box office before leaving theaters as one of Scott’s lowest-grossing films. Fans of Ridley Scott’s movie won’t have to wait long to see if he will find box office redemption, though, as he’s officially returning to the big screen next year for a remake of Treasure Island starring Hugh Jackman. Hugh Grant and Owen Cooper also star in the film, and Adolescence scribe Jack Thorne penned the script for Scott’s new pirate epic.
