A few ideas for Alien movies if Ridley Scott were not to be involved?

MemberNeomorphMay 10, 2017I know this may sound blasphemous for many. But what if Ridley Scott would leave the Alien franchise? Let's speculate about the directors and casts you would like to see lined up for the perfect Alien movie. What all these movies have in common is that in all of them, the Xenomorph reigns supreme.
Here some examples:
"Alien: Crusader"
Franchise sold to to Disney, this is a direct sequel to "Aliens")
Directed by: JJ Abrams
Cast:
Elizabeth Winstead as Ripley (she looks just like her)
Chloe Grace Moretz (Newt)
Bill Skarsgard (sythetic)
Xenomorph count: untold numbers
"Alien: Game Over"
Directed by: Jordan Peele (Of "Get Out" fame, can make a 5 million investment into 200 million return)
Written By Jordan Peele, a very fun, action packed and original take on Alien
Cast:
Zoe Zaldana (Captain Nostromo II)
Tom Hardy (Second in command)
Sigourney Weaver (older Ripley)
Rami Malek (synthetic)
Michael Fassbender (evil A.I., secondary character, Michael Fassbender is a character actor!)
Xenomorph number: under wraps
"Alien: Awakening" (takes place in the colony planet the Covenant was heading to)
Directed by David Fincher (he gets a second chance, with no interference from the studios!)
Screenplay by: Newbie (no rewrites, Newbie just happens to be brilliant)
Starring: Jennifer Lawrence (colonist)
Daniel Craig (colony superintendent)
Miles Teller (colonial marine)
Gal Gadot (synthetic, pleasure model)
Armie Hammer (Jennifer Lawrence's husband) Katherine Waterston (cameo)
Xenomorph count: As many as there are colonists
"Alien: Engineers" (taking place on the Engineers homeworld, this would be a fanboy wet dream about Alien mythology)
Directed & produced by Guillermo del Toro
Cast:
Emma Stone (Earth envoy)
Tom Hiddleston (Jesus Christ clone)
Mia Wasikowska (synthetic)
Xenomorph count: A planet full of them
Waiting to be produced...
