You’ll be screaming about the Alien franchise for a long time to come. Following the success of Fede Alvarez’s (Evil Dead, Don’t Breathe) movie Alien: Romulus, which will have a sequel, fans of the saga initiated by Ridley Scott will find the Xenomorphs on the small screen.
Creatures from elsewhere storm planet Earth in the feature film Alien: Earth, run by Noah Hawley, creator of the Fargo series and writer of the Legion series.
“Planet Earth is waiting for a child”
Officially announced four years ago, this Alien series is a prequel set before the events of the popular film franchise. Note that Noah Hawley indicated that Alien: Earth would not take into account the events of Ridley Scott’s recent Alien films, namely Prometheus and Covenant.
Hulu has already revealed the first cryptic teaser and the beginning of the synopsis: “When a mysterious spaceship crashes on Earth, a young woman and a group of tactical soldiers make a fateful discovery that brings them face to face with the greatest threat on the planet.”
We learn a little more with a new teaser and new information released by Hulu and Disney+, which will be the official broadcaster in France. Alien: Earth takes place exactly in the year 2120, 2 years before Alien: The 8th Passenger, although it was previously said to take place about 30 years earlier. And the trailer sets the tone: “Planet Earth is waiting for a child”.
The synopsis now includes more detail: “As the group scours the wreckage for survivors, they encounter mysterious predatory life forms beyond imagination.
Faced with this new threat, the research team must fight for survival, but their decisions in the face of this discovery could change planet Earth as they know it. “.
And above all, we get a better look at the terrifying xenomorphs that are coming to our planet for the first time. The series Alien: Earth promises a lot of excitement and should not be in front of everyone, as the Disney+ teaser and the official poster remind about parental control access to the series.
In terms of casting, let us remind you that this fiction is carried by Sidney Chandler (Pistol, Don’t Worry Darling), Alex Lowther (The End of The F***ing World), Essie Davis (Mr. Babadook, One Day) and Timothy Olyphant, among others .
The series “Alien: Earth” will air on Disney+ in 2025.
