Now mind you, neither Portman, the previously rumored Noomi Rapace or the two names today are anywhere close to signing on for the ALIEN film but it’s still intriguing to see who Scott and company have their eye on, right? So it’s with that in mind that I come here today to tell you that the two latest names being eyed for the prequel are none other than James Franco and Anne Hathaway! Did that just blow your mind?! According to the guys over at Bloody-Disgusting both Franco (above) and Hathaway (below) are being eyed for roles in the film and if everything goes according to plan we could have some official announcements coming at us in a few days. Though this is all wishful thinking…
What do you guys think? Would you like to see Franco and Hathaway step into Ridley Scott’s world? Kind of hard not to be a James Franco fan, right? And there’s no arguing that Anne Hathaway is always a solid sell… So I’m going to go ahead and jump on board this one! Here’s hoping things pan out. As always as soon as we hear more on the project we’ll be sure to pass the good word along to all of you.
