From Director Luke Scott And Producer Ridley Scott Comes The Horror-Scifi Film Morgan

Luke Scott’s sci-fi thriller Morgan has released a new teaser trailer, which has a serious Alien vibe. It’s not surprising, Luke Scott’s father is none other than legendary director Ridley Scott, who is a producer for the film. The trailer is dark and the lullaby playing in the background makes it very creepy. We see a child that has been created as part of an experiment, developing at an alarming rate. In Morgan “A corporate troubleshooter (Kate Mara) is sent to a remote, top-secret location, where she is to investigate and evaluate a terrifying accident. She learns the event was triggered by a seemingly innocent “human”, who presents a mystery of both infinite promise and incalculable danger.” “What ‘Morgan’ really alludes to is human begins becoming, in a sense, the creator. Not in a traditional religious sense, but an idea that we have the capabilities to become our own creator. And what I suspect could happen – we’ve seen it
