I missed the original posting about ALIEN II that started this, but...

ALIEN was directed by Ridley Scott; he won't be directing ALIEN II. The last
word I heard on ALIEN II was that it would be (co-?) written and directed by
James Cameron, who performed those chores on THE TERMINATOR. I don't know if
anyone's been cast, or when production is supposed to begin.  The only thing
I've heard about the plot is that Ripley makes it back to Earth and explains
what happened to the Nostromo.  Despite her warnings, the Company dispatches
another ship to the planet where the Nostromo picked up the alien.
