Ridley Scott on the red carpet
Ridley Scott is now almost 90 years old, but the veteran filmmaker is showing no signs of slowing down. Later this year, Scott will return to the big screen with one of the most anticipated sci-fi epics of the year, The Dog Stars, which features performances from Jacob Elordi, Margaret Qualley, Josh Brolin, and more.
The film was originally set to be released early in the year before being delayed to August to give the post-production team a little more time to ensure the quality is up to par with what fans expect from a Ridley Scott production. Scott has also given the world some of the most famous sci-fi epics of all time, like Alien, Blade Runner, and The Martian. Some of these films spawned franchises that he’s still involved with today, all these years later. When you’ve been directing movies as long as Ridley Scott, it’s only natural that there will be some that resonate differently with the masses than others. One of Scott’s most controversial films, released just a few years ago, was when he attempted to tell the story of Napoleon Bonaparte in a war epic starring Joaquin Phoenix and Vanessa Kirby. The film was immediately polarizing, with fans and reviewers criticizing historical inaccuracies and divisive performances. Napoleon grossed only $222 million at the box office against a $200 million budget, making it one of the biggest box office flops of Ridley Scott’s directorial career. Despite these poor reviews, though, Napoleon is still one of the most popular watches on Apple TV around the world. The film is rewriting history with each new day that passes.

It has yet to be confirmed if Ridley Scott will direct another movie after The Dogs Stars, but most fans would be surprised if he doesn’t return to the big screen at some point. Scott confirmed to Collider last year that he has a script for a Western movie he’d love to direct, but wanting to direct a movie and putting together the pieces to bring it to theaters are two entirely different things. Scott teased that he had another Gladiator movie in development, but Gladiator II’s underwhelming performance at the box office made it far less likely that it would come to fruition.
