Ridley Scott has said that he "really wants" to make a Prometheus sequel.

The filmmaker revealed that he enjoyed making the sci-fi blockbuster so much that he wants to work on a follow-up, although he admits that he has no idea what he would do to extend the story.

Speaking to Collider he said: ''I really enjoyed it so much, I really want to do the sequel, it's interesting to do a sequel because it leaves the door so open to some huge questions.

''I don't know how to do it but when we get to it we probably will.''

Screen-writer Damon Lindelof recently stated that he had to work hard to leave the movie open to a sequel saying: ''Ridley was very interested in talking about, 'What are the answers to the questions that Prometheus is posing that are not necessarily definitively spelled out in the body of 'Prometheus'?'

''I said to him, 'We should be prepared for people to feel frustrated if we're going to be withholding, so we have to be very careful about what we're saving for later', because it's not a foregone conclusion that there are going to be sequels.''
