For decades we’ve seen what kind of damage a Xenomorph alien can do in outer space in the films of the classic sci-fi franchise, Alien, but now, we’re about to find out how bad things can get if one ever reached Earth thanks to a new series set to premier on FX.
During the AFC championship game on Sunday (Jan. 26) between the Buffalo Bills and Kansas City Chiefs, FX released their first teaser trailer for their upcoming show, Alien: Earth, and while we didn’t get much action from the minute-long trailer, we’re already excited about the possibilities. According to Deadline, the series will center around a group of people who investigate the crash landing of a spaceship on Earth only to learn about the deadly alien monster that it carried in it when it entered our atmosphere.
Sure to be filled with blood, guts, and gore, fans of the Alien franchise can’t wait to see how this pans out now that the Xenomorph has found it’s way to our home.
Per Deadline:
The cast includes Sydney Chandler, who leads the project, Alex Lawther, Timothy Olyphant, Essie Davis, Samuel Blenkin, Babou Ceesay, David Rysdahl, Adrian Edmondson, Adarsh Gourav, Jonathan Ajayi, Erana James, Lily Newmark, Diem Camille and Moe Bar-El.
“There’s something about seeing a Xenomorph in the wilds of Earth with your own eyes,” Hawley told Deadline at the Emmy Awards in September. “That is truly chilling to think of it moving here among us, and so I can’t tell you under what circumstances you’ll see that, but you’ll see it — and you’re going to lock your door that night.”
Regarding his approach to designing the sharp-tooth creatures, he said, “What was really fun for me was to really engage with the creature, bring some of my own thoughts to the design while not touching the silhouette, because that’s sacrosanct. But some of the elements as we know, whatever the host is inform what the final creature is. I just wanted to play around a little bit to make it as scary as it should be.”
They need to find a way to get a Sigourney Weaver cameo at some point. Just sayin’.
Alien: Earth is set to premier sometime this coming Summer. Check out the teaser trailer and let us know if you’ll be checking it out in the comments section below.
