Do you think that the Trilobite from Prometheus will be in Alien: Covenant?

I cannot see it appearing in that form.

I hope. :) Not only one - I would like to see more trilobites in a good chase scene.

Looks more like the spine and backside of his own ribcage being pushed back.

I don't think we'll see another trilobite, it was probably the specific offspring result of Shaw and Holloway considering how the goo affects humans and creatures in such different ways. 

The way I see a trilobite being in covenant is through Shaw giving birth to another one.

I think we have confirmation that that is a Neomorph birth scene. But maybe there's a chance. A slim one.

I am not sure if we will see any Trilobites in Alien Covenant,  all we do know about is the Neormorph from Spores  and Xenomorphs (Proto-Morph?) from Eggs.

The so called sighting of Trilobites attacking W-Y Personnel has to be a rumor that can not be validated at this point, but thats not to say we wont see them.

Fox has given a lot away, even if we discount any supposed screener viewers of the Movie,  there is a lot we have been shown and know.

so maybe there is something they are keeping back.

I would think however anything like this would be in the Prequel Book that ADF are doing.

We certainly have to wander what becomes of Shaw, does she still have any Mutated Sperm (or worm Parasites) inside of her, or if not but it was Worm Parasites and not Mutated Sperm then indeed David could Re-Create the Experiment on Shaw again.

But we cant be certain if this happens, i think its safe to assume that David would want to experiment with the Bio-Weapon and if its teasing those Eggs are the results of his experiments, then we have to ask what process would create a Egg?

And so the option is there for some other Organisms created from Experiments to Predate those Eggs.

Maybe this is where Fassbenders comment in regards to David and Shaw being alone on the Juggernaught comes to play.

As he teased "as far as we all know"

The egg cycle could be like this:

Shaw-Trilobite-Deacon-Adult Deacon?-egg-Protomorph.

Or this:

Shaw-Trilobite+egg-egg-Protomorph.

What i'm saying is that the eggs could be created two possible ways:

1. from the Deacon or Adult Deacon.

2. from Shaw or mutated Shaw.

Both ways will leave room for the Trilobite.

I doubt wel see the trilobite. for that we need an infected human getting jiggy with another human and with the neos, protos and xenos running about I don't see the crew having much time for that. shaw being egg morphed is the plausible thing I can see being done but for me I hope she is alive. she is a different type of female character in the alien movies and I think it could do with keeping her alive for the next sequel, hopefully a return to lv223

Yeah, the probability of there being a trilobite in Alien: Covenant is low, but there could be another way that the Trilobite is created other then the way it happened in Prometheus

true, we don't know much about it as it is something new. obviously a form of face hugger but being birthed from a host differs to the egg form so there is room for expansion

I remember when I watched Prometheus and first saw the adult trilobite. I thought it a cool spin on facehuggers. Pretty terrifying too. If it's in covenant, i'd want to see it used as a plot device and not a passing cameo.

Trilobites appear to be intended to impregnate Engineers, not Humans. I think that if there are live Engineer hosts available, then the Black Goo is going to find a way to make more Trilobites. If there are no Engineers left, then what good would generating a Trilobite be since they seem a bit too big for a Human host?

This is the one Ati 

Yes, ok, but people say it is not official, so I don't know. I hope!

Who knows, we did have the rumor that someone saw WY Security shooting at one on set.

But we have to remember a lot of scenes seem to have been with Props that are not final and are there to give the actors something to picture in their minds rather than nothing.

So the actual scene would no doubt have added effects latter and maybe CGI. 

So maybe the scene they was not shooting at Trilobites, but its only what the so called person who saw it, may have thought it was. 

Then again maybe they used a Trilobite type Prop on set, but then the movie will simply redo it to something else..  much like how we had Sean Harris in the Toxic Avenger Zombie Fifield make up, but then we also had that CGI version.

As far as the Trilobite being created for Engineers, that would imply the strain in the Black Goo had programed Genetic Outcome to create such a thing.

But then why was this strain intended to be used on Earth?

The Trilobite was just a series of events that resulted in either Mutated Sperm or a Parasite being passed onto Shaw that infected her Egg.

And a Egg would have a complete blank canvas of Genetic Material to re-code and so with less evolved Code to re-write such as a full Human or other Organism, a Egg would become a base Embryo and most Organisms on Earth (Birds, Mammals, Fish, Reptiles) all look the same at the first Stage of a Embryo and so the Mutagen would not need to re-write much code.

So the result is something with more higher % of Xeno related strain DNA and essentially a Face Hugger Hybrid that when it grows in Shaws Womb it takes on Human traits.

This is why the Trilobite had hair, its why the resulting Xenomorph had same fingers and toes like a Human and Enamel Teeth and not Metallic and also why it had a Placenta etc.

The Trilobites could be re-created via TWO Methods.

1) Assuming Holloways Infected Sperm was the cause, then David would just need to spike a drink of another Male Colonist and hope they get down to some Action.

2) Assuming that it was a Parasite that was passed on to Shaw via intercourse like a STD then all David would need is the same Goo he took from the top of the ampoule and get it into a Females Womb by which ever method he can.

The other option would be if either of above applies, but the Mutated Sperm or Parasites dont die out and are still in Shaws system, then indeed she could get pregnant by them again.

Looking at Prometheus, the most logical way any Egg Organism would be grown/birthed would be via the Hammerpedes.

When looking at the Prometheus Punishment and how the Source said that without Sin in context to Paradise Lost and if by that they mean Satans Daughter, who is constantly in labor with Hounds of Hell and daily they tear at her entrails as they are born, and she must suffer this constant painful labor for eternity.

The only way this can apply to Shaw is if indeed she becomes Pregnant again similar method if in prior post Option 2 is what was happening or the theory after.

Then she could get Pregnant and maybe David removes the Organism, fixes her up and then repeats the same process.

Then he experiments on the results over and over until he creates something that we see in Alien Covenant.

imagine if the company got Shaw back if she went into Cryo-sleep as intended and they left LV-223 without waking up the Engineer.

The company could experiment like they did with Ripley clones in AR...  They could remove the Organism via C-Section as she did, and then if she got Pregnant again after, then they can keep repeating the Process a few times.

i would assume this is Shaws fate... or she actually becomes infected and changes into a Hybrid and then this hybrid then gives birth to Organisms that David can experiment with.

I wouldn’t mind if we will see another one in the movie but it is not needed. There are more interesting monsters that they can put into it. My reason for considering it OK is because that was as close to a face-hugger as we got in Prometheus but since it seems that there are monsters in AC that will be closer to the original I say that it won’t be necessary to put it there.

As far as I remember the Trilobite was a result from Holloway making Shaw pregnant. Holloway was given some goo from David that put that thing in his drink. Well the monster is still at LV-223 so the only way that they will have one there if it is not from that planet is if the same process would happen again. The exact same thing will probably not happen, that would be lame.

Hopefully the article where they mentioned that the Trilobite attacked people on Paradise was just false information. The Trilobyte is not a crappy idea but I find it unlikely that the same thing would happen again since it would be repetitive but not disastrous.

@Thoughts_Dreams yeah good point, although we do know that David is "experimenting" and that he could possibly create a trilobite on purpose since Shaw could have been forced to tell him what happened... anyways I'd really like to see an adult Deacon and if it can lay eggs. These eggs could then lead to normal facehuggers? I mean who knows. 

SO many possibilities...
