Ridley Scott: I'll never work without 3-D again

[July 22, 2011]  SAN DIEGO (AP) -- Ridley Scott is shooting his first film in 3-D, and he says he'll always use the multidimensional approach in his future films.

The director appeared at Comic-Con via satellite from Iceland, where he is shooting the sci-fi thriller "Prometheus."

Scott said 3-D doesn't just enhance action sequences, it "opens up the universe of even a small dialogue thing."

The filmmaker said, "I'll never work without 3-D again."

"Prometheus" star Charlize Theron appeared on stage at Comic-Con and co-star Noomi Rapace appeared alongside Scott in Iceland.

The film explores questions of alien DNA and is set for release next year.

Comic-Con continues through Sunday at the San Diego Convention Center.
