The Big Picture It's a great time to be an Alien fan. Not only is the Ridley Scott classic celebrating its 45th anniversary this year, Alien: Romulus is going to make horror fans screen in theaters all over again next month. However, even with that, one of the more intriguing upcoming projects for the franchise has been the Alien TV Series from FX. Now, after a long scary road, the sci-fi horror series has wrapped filming.

Star Sydney Chandler made it official with an Instagram post this week reminiscing about the series' unique production. Alien had been filming in Thailand since the beginning of the year after getting back on track when the actor’s strike ended in late 2023. The series comes from Legion creator Noah Hawley and, alongside Chandler, starsBabou Cressy, Jonathan Ajayi, Erana James, Lily Newmark, Diêm Camille, Timothy Olyphantand Sandra Yi Sencindiver, among others.

What’s ‘Alien’ About? Close Despite its proximity, Alien is not related to Romulus besides its franchise namesake. This is a story that brings the Alien franchise to Earth for the first time, taking place 30 years before the events of the original film . This would make it one of the earliest terrifying tales in the expansive Alien universe. In comparison, Fede Álvarez’s Romulus takes place 20 years after the first film.

When Does ‘Alien’ Release? There's no official release date for the Alien FX series yet, but it’s looking like it’ll debut sometime in 2025. As we get closer to next year, we should get more concrete information on that scream-worthy front. Hopefully, the series will get a boost from Alien: Romulus, which scares its way to theaters on August 16, 2024. The original Alien film is also currently streaming on Hulu.
