In late 2010, Lindelof joined the project to rewrite Spaihts's script, and he and Scott developed a story that precedes the story of Alien but is not directly connected to that franchise.
Kasne 2010. godine, Lindelof je ušao u projekt te započeo raditi na Spaihtsovom scenariju pa su on i Scott razvili priču koja prethodi priči iz Aliena, ali nije direktno vezana za franšizu.
