With director Ridley Scott making his long-awaited return to the sci-fi genre this month, one of his most successful late-period movies is about to be removed from its streaming home. Scott made a name for himself with landmark sci-fi movies such as Alien and Blade Runner, but has spent the better part of the last decade working on period movies. His last release was Gladiator II, which underperformed at the box office relative to its reported budget of $300 million. He also directed the costly historical dramas Napoleon and The Last Duel. On August 29, however, Scott is returning with The Dog Stars, a post-apocalyptic sci-fi film headlined by Jacob Elordi.
