"Sir Ridley Scott has revealed details of a potential follow-up to Prometheus. The Oscar-nominated director said that the sequel to the recent sci-fi could be called Paradise, which was Prometheus&amp;#039;s original title.  &amp;quot;From the very beginning, I was working from a premise that lent itself to a sequel,&amp;quot; Scott told The Hollywood Reporter. &amp;quot;I really don&amp;#039;t want to meet God in the first one. I want to leave it open to [Noomi Rapace&amp;#039;s character Dr Elizabeth Shaw] saying, &amp;#039;I don&amp;#039;t want to go back to where I came from. I want to go where they came from&amp;#039;.&amp;quot; The 74-year-old also teased that the paradise of the film&amp;#039;s possible title would not be as heavenly as the name suggests. &amp;quot;Because [the Engineers] are such aggressive f**kers, I always had it in there that the God-like creature that you will see actually is not so nice, and is certainly not God,&amp;quot; Scott explained. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;d love to explore where [Dr Shaw] goes next and what does she do when she gets there, because if it is paradise, paradise cannot be what you think it is. Paradise has a connotation of being extremely sinister and ominous.&amp;quot;   Damon Lindelof, who co-wrote the film, suggested that any follow-up would be less concerned with building up to Alien and would instead go in a different direction. &amp;quot;[Prometheus] has two children - one of these children grows up to be Alien, but the other child is going to grow up, and God knows what happens to them,&amp;quot; he said. &amp;quot;And that&amp;#039;s what the sequel to Prometheus would be.&amp;quot; Rapace recently expressed her hope for a sequel to the film, which also starred Michael Fassbender, Charlize Theron and Idris Elba.
