has shared a featurette video for Alien: Romulus, which features new footage from the forthcoming video that will be released this August. In the video, Álvarez discusses making a “pure horror movie” and how they “built every creature for real” in order to make it “gritty and grounded.”“While scavenging the deep ends of a derelict space station, a group of young space colonizers come face to face with the most terrifying life form in the universe,” the synopsis for the movie reads.
Alien: Romulus is set between the events of 1979’s Alien, directed by Ridley Scott, and 1986’s Aliens, directed by James Cameron. Other entries in the franchise include 1992’s Alien 3, 1997’s Alien Resurrection, 2004’s Alien vs. Predator, 2007’s Aliens vs Predator: Requiem, 2012’s Prometheus, and 2017’s Alien Covenant.
The cast includes Cailee Spaeny, David Jonsson, Archie Renaux, Isabela Merced, Spike Fearn, and Aileen Wu. Álvarez — who previously made 2013’s Evil Dead, 2016’s Don’t Breathe, and 2018’s The Girl in the Spider’s Web — co-wrote the screenplay with Rodo Sayagues. He also serves as an executive producer alongside Elizabeth Cantillon, Brent O’Connor, and Tom Moran, while Ridley Scott, Michael Pruss, and Walter Hill serve as producers.
In addition to Álvarez’s movie, Noah Hawley is currently working on an Alien series for FX on Hulu. It is expected to premiere in 2025 and stars Sydney Chandler, Alex Lawther, Essie Davis, and Timothy Olyphant, among others.Brandon Schreur has been writing about comics, movies, television shows, and all things pop culture for roughly five years. He's a lifelong cinephile who spends way, way too much money buying Blu-rays and trade paperbacks.
