New A-Team TV Series in Development
20th Century Fox Television is currently developing a reboot of '80s TV action series The A-Team with Fast & Furious writer-producer Chris Morgan.
The new series, according to THR, is to be a "contemporary take" on the old show, which starred George Peppard, Dirk Benedict, Dwight Schultz, and Mr. T as a Special Forces unit on the run for crimes they did not commit. Albert Kim (Nikita, Sleepy Hollow) will write the script while A-Team creator Stephen J. Cannell's daughter, Tawnia McKiernan, is attached to possibly direct.
It's said that the new A-Team will include both male and female members, still roaming the countryside, helping those in need while trying to avoid capture.

Prometheus 2’s New Title Missing the Word Prometheus
Ridley Scott has revealed the official title for the next film in the Prometheus saga.
Speaking to Hey U Guys, Scott said that the next Prometheus film will be called Alien: Paradise Lost.
It of course references John Milton's epic poem Paradise Lost, which details the biblical story of the fall of man, the temptation of Adam and Eve by Satan, and their expulsion from the Garden of Eden.
Ridley Scott had previously said that Alien: Paradise Lost will begin filming in January 2016. That could possibly hold up production of Alien 5. Scott is producing both films, with Neill Blomkamp (District 9, Chappie) directing Alien 5.

BioShock Pulled From App Store
The mobile port of BioShock has been removed from the App Store due to an incompatibility issue.
Despite slightly misleading reports earlier today from a 2K Games customer support agent, who stated that the game was pulled due to a "developer decision," 2K has now clarified that the removal of BioShock's iOS port is not permanent.
"BioShock is currently incompatible with iOS versions 8.4 and higher, and as such, is temporarily removed for purchase from the App Store," 2K explained in a statement to IGN. "2K is fixing the compatibility issue, and when resolved, will place BioShock back on the App Store for purchase. Customers who already own BioShock may continue playing the game with iOS version 8.3 or earlier. 2K regrets the initial customer service error and looks forward to delivering an updated version of BioShock for iOS in the near future."
