The prequel which was originally penned by Jon Spaihts, is set thirty years before we meet Ridley and her team, and gives us some more backstory into how everything came into play. Lindelof is doing a rewrite of the story, and has met with director Ridley Scott to discuss details. Apparently, their discussions went so well the two might be working on a completely new science fiction project together as well.
In addition to the re-writing duties on this film, Lindelof is also writing the sequel to 2009’s Star Trek with other J.J. Abrams’ collaborators Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman, who he also co-wrote the upcoming Cowboys & Aliens with.
It’s great to see people from a great show like Lost moving onto even bigger and better things with their career. His re-write also gives me a little bit of hope for these prequels, and makes me thing that 20th Century Fox might be trying to make a solid franchise out of these prequels.

they better do it justice!. The Alien franchise in my oppinion has been almost flawless and there hasnt been a bad one made yet. So in other words hes tampering with perfection and Hollywood has been cruel latelty to their attempts of modifying origonal storylines.
