It’s not very often when we are blessed with a 4-minute footage from a big budget movie, though this clip isn’t exactly taken from the upcoming Ridley Scott’s Alien: Covenant, it is, however, essential in completing the ‘movie experience’ when the flick hits theatres in May.
Billed as the official prologue to Alien: Covenant and titled “The Last Supper,” the four-minute video serves as a prologue to the events of the movie, introducing the characters who have joined the Covenant mission to find a new world. The crew of the mission gather for a final meal before entering cryosleep.
Set aboard the Covenant, a colonisation ship on its way to a remote planet to form a new human settlement, the main crew (all couples) and their android, Walter, enjoy their final meal together before cryosleep.
[Synopsis]
Ridley Scott returns to the universe he created, with ALIEN: COVENANT, a new chapter in his groundbreaking ALIEN franchise. The crew of the colony ship Covenant, bound for a remote planet on the far side of the galaxy, discovers what they think is an uncharted paradise, but is actually a dark, dangerous world. When they uncover a threat beyond their imagination, they must attempt a harrowing escape.
