One of the first things we heard about the Alien TV series – and one of the most surprising things about it – is that it will be set on Earth (thus the title), a couple of decades before the events of the first movie.

FX has released a second full trailer for Noah Hawley's Alien: Earth, and in addition to giving us a glimpse of the show's redesigned Xenomorph, we get to see some of the other "monsters" Sydney Chandler's human/android hybrid soldier Wendy and the other protagonists will face

The Xeno only appears right at the end of the teaser (and at a distance), but it appears to have retained the classic look of the iconic creature for the most part.

During a new interview with Collider, Hawley explained why he was hesitant to deviate too much from the original design, and "didn't want to mess with the silhouette of the creature at all.”

“I always felt like it was the least effective when it looked like a guy in a suit. You know what I mean? So there are elements, like in the classic, there's just this big ribcage,...

Set two years prior to the events of Ridley Scott's classic, this first ever Alien series will feature the debut of a new form of synthetic hybrids (humanoid robots infused with human consciousness), and Sydney Chandler's character, Wendy, will lead her own team of hybrid soldiers.

When a Weyland-Yutani’s spaceship collides into Prodigy City, Wendy's crew volunteers to investigate, and they discover more than just Xenomophs waiting in the wreckage.

Alien: Earth is also set to introduce "five different life forms from the darkest corners of the universe. Monsters… Invasive species. Predatory.”

After various teaser promos and social media spots, FX has finally unveiled the full trailer for Noah Hawley's Alien: Earth.

Set two years prior to the events of Ridley Scott's classic, this first ever Alien series will introduce a new form of synthetic hybrids (humanoid robots infused with human consciousness), and the trailer begins with a terminally ill young woman transitioning into the body of Sydney Chandler's character, Wendy.

Still no sign of a full trailer, but FX has announced an official premiere date for Noah Hawley's Alien: Earth, will is set to debut on August 13 with a double episode (the first season runs for 8 in total).

We also have a new poster featuring a Xenomorph, some promo stills spotlighting the main characters, and an updated synopsis which reveals quite a bit of intriguing new information about the show.

We knew that Alien: Earth would take place before Ridley Scott's original film, but based on this logline, the show will be set just two years prior to the events of the first Alien. It's also come to light that Syndey Chandler's character, Wendy, is actually a prototype android.

Happy Alien Day!

Two new teasers for Noah Hawley's Alien: Earth have been released online. One spotlights the gestation cycle of a Xenomorph (in graphic detail), while the other reveals that the iconic acid-blooded beasts are not the only extraterrestrial threat our planet will face in the series!

According to the voiceover, “five different lifeforms from the darkest corners of the universe — each one a unique, deadly species” were chosen to bring back to Earth for study (never a good idea).

We don't get a proper look at the other lifeforms in the crates, but this doesn't sound like five different variations or subspecies of Xenomorph. A group of brand-new alien creatures would certainly prove to be an intriguing and unexpected addition to this series.

Check out the promos below along with a new poster, and let us know what you think in the comments section.

Incoming report from Weyland-Yutani: Critical Gestation Complete.

The Alien franchise is set to continue on the small screen with an “FX on Hulu” TV series called Alien: Earth, from Fargo creator Noah Hawley, which is aiming for a Summer 2025 premiere. While we wait to hear a specific premiere date for the show, FX has partnered with IGN to put together “a tongue-in-cheek Earth Day public service announcement,” which can be seen in the embed above. On the IGN social media accounts, they’ll also be rolling out a series of short videos “chronicling the gestation of a creature in what appeared to be a controlled lab setting.”

Following some brief promos, FX has finally released a full teaser for Noah Hawley's Alien: Earth, which begins with the first clip from the upcoming sci-fi horror series.

The footage finds a man sitting in a very Nostromo-esque control room as his crewmate desperately tries to convince him to open the door and let her in. The woman then turns to face whatever has been stalking her, and we get a first look at one of the show's Xenomorphs on the attack.

Hawley has hinted that the series will introduce a new breed of the iconic creature, though it's difficult to make out any significant changes to the classic design here.

As the Xeno dispatches its victim, the man - possibly the ship's android - tells the computer that the crew is dead. Though we don't know for sure, we assume this is what remains of the crew of the Uscss Maginot,...

The xenomorphs will soon be crashing to Earth, and now we know a few more people they may or may not be having for lunch. Later this year, FX will premiere Alien: Earth, its new television series from Fargo creator Noah Hawley. Set two years before the original Alien film, the series will explore how the massive corporations ruling Earth came to learn about the xenomorph.

Alien: Earth wrapped filming back in July 2024, but many of the details about the series have been kept under wraps. That's starting to change. Earlier this week, The Hollywood Reporter revealed 11n new cast members who will play guest starring roles in Alien: Earth. The new actors joining the series are Richa Moorjani (Fargo), Karen Aldridge, Enzo Cilenti (Game of Thrones), Max Rinehart (Unforgotten), Amir Boutrous (The Crown), Victoria Masoma, Tom Moya, Andy Yu (Fargo), Michael Smiley (Bad Sisters), Jamie Bisping (The Rings of Power) and Tanapol Chuksrida.

While we're still waiting on a full trailer, FX recently released some snippets of new footage (see below) for Noah Hawley's Alien: Earth, and we now have a series of short "Secret Transmission" teasers which appear to document the events that lead to the Uscss Maginot crash-landing on Earth.

There are quite a few classic Alien callbacks here, including very familiar computer sounds, garbled transmissions, interiors that look quite a bit like the Nostromo from Ridley Scott's film, and a cat that could very easily pass for Jonesy.

The first clip begins with a crew member fixing a camera to the cat's head, and our new feline friend ends up recording some kind of red alert event that sends the crew into a panic. We also see someone in a cryosleep pod, and we're willing to bet that this guy is just bursting to get off the ship...

The marketing for Alien: Earth is beginning to ramp up. A series of video teasers have been released ahead of the sci-fi show's summer premiere on FX.

Bloody Disgusting was recently sent five short videos featuring footage filmed on the camera collar of the long-haired orange cat, Rascal, who roams freely aboard the Uscss Maginot, the Weyland-Yutani ship that will crashland on Earth in the upcoming Alien series. The description for all five videos is the same and reads as follows: "We suspect there is important information pertaining to Weyland Yutani's Deep Space Programs that could be of use to the corporation. Files on the data drive may offer clues to the ship's mission." Check out all five teasers below.

What's This TV Show About?

An FX crime drama anthology, Fargo stars Ewan McGregor (in a dual role), with Carrie Coon, Michael Stuhlbarg, David Thewlis, Goran Bogdan, Andy Yu, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Jim Gaffigan, and Scoot McNairy. Taking place in 2010, the story follows the sibling rivalry between Emmit (McGregor) the “Parking Lot King of Minnesota,” and his younger brother Ray Stussy (McGregor), a pot-bellied parole officer. Although Emmit sees himself as an American success story, Ray is more of a cautionary tale.

When a movie refers repeatedly to David Foster Wallace’s “Infinite Jest”, a notoriously difficult-to-read novel, it is bound to follow a non-linear path, which is exactly what “Ex-Wife Monogatari” does, in a somewhat experimental short, which lingers, though, towards genre conventions.

Ming, a painter, is experiencing a debilitating grief after his wife Li has passed away during a miscarriage. To fill the void inside him, he seeks the company of other women, a number of which are eager to “help”. However, his trauma remains and the memories of his wife continue to torment him, to the point that he tries to manipulate each woman she meets to be exactly like her. Eventually, he meets Hong at a funeral, a woman who looks and acts like Li, and who is soon revealed to foster another “fetish”, of only being loved when she pretends to be someone else. As the childhoods...

Immediate Reaction

Who the heck is that dude wearing a wolf head?

Pardon our lapse in Minnesotan manners, but the ending of a brief but slow-moving “Fargo” threw us for a bit of a loop. It looks like Yui (Goran Bogdan), Varga’s henchman, but the dark lighting of our computer monitors isn’t the only reason we’re not 100 percent certain. If we hadn’t seen the face of the man who dropped into Nikki Swango’s (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) overturned prisoner transport bus, we would’ve left things at this: The wolf is a symbol repeatedly used for Varga (David Thewlis) throughout Season 5. In Episode 4, Billy Bob Thornton narrated a “symphonic fairy tale” where Varga played the wolf. Episode 5 ended with an ominous shot of a wolf’s head, meant to encapsulate Varga’s looming power as much as it foreshadows what’s to come.
