Fans of cultivated sci-fi horror could rejoice. The best series in the genre will soon be continued by the Alien series. It’s still a while until the launch, but soon the production will reach its first important point.
Alien shooting starts: sci-fi horror enters absolute new franchise territory
As head of production company FX John Landgraf confirmed to Deadline the series is set to begin shooting later this year. Showrunner Noah Hawley (Fargo) is currently in active pre-production.
Franchise fans will already be eagerly awaiting the series, as it enters completely new territory for the series. For the first time in the Alien universe, the story will be set entirely on Earth, about 70 years in the future. Heroine Ripley is not supposed to be in it.
