1) No-one knows yet. some images have been released that suggest that the movie is set within the same "universe" as Alien, but then so was Outland.

2) Scott hasn't "done much of any worth since the early 90s"? You really think so?
As Director alone, movies that stand out for me were Gladiator, Hannibal, Black Hawk Down, the Director's Cut of Kingdom of Heaven (not the shallow theatrical cut), and Body of Lies. I even liked Robin Hood despite the butchering of history, it stil worked as entertainment, I thought.

Each to their own, and all that.
