Prometheus Sequel Gets New Title and Synopsis

20th Century Fox has just announced that they will not be calling the sequel to Prometheus, Paradise Lost. In an announcement that just came out a few moments ago, the studio has released the title of the film- Alien: Covenant, along with the movie’s first synopsis:

Ridley Scott returns to the universe he created in ALIEN with ALIEN: COVENANT, the second chapter in a prequel trilogy that began with PROMETHEUS — and connects directly to Scott’s 1979 seminal work of science fiction. Bound for a remote planet on the far side of the galaxy, the crew of the colony ship Covenant discovers what they think is an uncharted paradise, but is actually a dark, dangerous world — whose sole inhabitant is the “synthetic” David (Michael Fassbender), survivor of the doomed Prometheus expedition.
