It looks like Michael Fassbender and Noomi Rapace will be heading to Sydney, Australia next April to film scenes for Alien: Covenant while pre-production begins before Christmas this year! The Sydney Morning Herald reports that filming will be taking place at the Sydney Fox Studio. It is interesting to note that Rapace will be present as well, considering her absence from the film's official plot synopsis. This is good news however, as it suggests we will see clues to Shaw's fate and why she isn't present when the crew of the Covenant touch down on Paradise.

"After their roles in the prequel Prometheus, Fassbender? and Rapace? are down to star in the next instalment. 

And while nothing has been announced yet, crew who are signing up for the sci-fi movie say it is now locked in.

The sixth movie in the Alien franchise will start pre-production before Christmas and shoot in Sydney from April 4 next year.

According to a 20th Century Fox, it will show the crew of the colony ship Covenant discovering what they think is an uncharted paradise but is actually a dangerous world whose sole inhabitant is the synthetic David (Fassbender), survivor of the doomed Prometheus expedition."

I don't know if it has been mentioned here before, but I read on several websites that all three Alien prequels will be shot in Australia.

What do you think?
