Speaking with the press today, Ridley Scott talked about his assorted films in the works now that he's done with the Crusades epic "Kingdom of Heaven".

The "Gladiator" sequel's status is "nothing at the moment, but we're trying to find a good solution for a sequel" says Scott. Logan's script is "not quite there yet. Remember there's no Maximus anymore, I think the task is quite difficult...there is a next generation idea but it's very loose at the moment."

In regards to an "Alien 5" there hasn't been any movement on it despite the talk. Would he return to the franchise though if offered? "It's all to do with the material, if the script was great - of course".

The long in development "Tripoli" he hopes will get made one day "It's a great script and a great time in history as well".

As for what he has in the works right now - "I've got this western, and a comedy - they're all very different but they're all coming together quite fast."
