Jack Paglen has been hired to pen the script for a sequel to Ridley Scott's "Prometheus".
Paglen was previously linked, but now comes word that Scott has agreed to his take on the direction for the sequel. As a result, negotiations are now underway.
Paglen would replace Damon Lindelof who penned the first film which scored $403 million worldwide at the box-office. It's expected this sequel will further distance itself from the "Alien"-related elements of the first film.
Paglen penned "Transcendence," the upcoming directorial debut of "The Dark Knight" cinematographer Wally Pfister, which stars the likes of Johnny Depp, Paul Bettany, Rebecca Hall and Morgan Freeman.

Ryan Reynolds has reportedly dropped out of the long gestating reboot of the "Highlander" franchise at Summit Entertainment.
This follows on from filmmaker Juan Carlos Fresnadillo ("28 Weeks Later") who left back in November after more than a year's work on the project. Justin Lin ("Fast Five") was originally attached to direct.
Reynolds was to play immortal Scottish swordsman Connor MacLeod in this new take on the original 1986 cult hit that spawned a franchise.
Art Marcum, Matt Holloway, Noah Oppenheim and Melissa Rosenberg previously worked on the script, while Neal Moritz and Peter Davis are set to produce.
