đ˝ Alien: Earth â The Fight for Survival Begins
Landing Summer 2025 on FX | Hulu
The xenomorph threat has always loomed large across the Alien universe. But what happens when the horror doesn't lurk in deep space â it crash-lands right here on Earth? Brace yourself: Alien: Earth, the newest installment from visionary creator Noah Hawley, is about to redefine fear itself.
đ A New Chapter in a Legendary Franchise
Set two years before the events of Ridley Scottâs groundbreaking 1979 film, Alien: Earth brings the terror home. After a mysterious spacecraft crash-lands, a young woman named Wendy (played by Sydney Chandler) and a ragtag group of tactical soldiers uncover a chilling secret: Earth is about to become the next hunting ground for some very invasive species.
Led by Chandler's Wendy â a woman with the body of an adult but the mind of a child â the crew must confront unimaginable horrors while battling both external threats and internal demons.
No pressure, right?
đ Meet the Survivors (And Maybe the Victims...)
Sydney Chandler as Wendy, our emotionally complex and uniquely gifted protagonist
Timothy Olyphant as Kirsh, Wendyâs synthetic mentor and combat trainer
Alex Lawther as CJ, a brave young soldier
Samuel Blenkin as Boy Kavalier, a calculating CEO
Essie Davis as Dame Silvia, bringing gravitas and mystery
Adarsh Gourav as Slightly, adding depth to the battlefield dynamics
Plus an expansive ensemble including Kit Young, Babou Ceesay, David Rysdahl, Jonathan Ajayi, Erana James, Lily Newmark, Adrian Edmondson, and more
With Sandra Yi Sencindiver and Richa Moorjani among the recurring cast, expect corporate greed and dark agendas to stir the pot even further. (Weyland-Yutani fans, take note...)
đ¸ Why Alien: Earth is a Must-Watch
Itâs Noah Hawley. (Fargo, Legion â enough said.) Expect intelligent, layered storytelling with a surreal twist.
Ridley Scott is on board. As executive producer, heâs keeping the DNA of the franchise intact while encouraging bold new directions.
Groundbreaking horror meets social commentary. The show promises to dive deep into humanityâs darker instinctsâthink corporate exploitation, weaponization of biology, and survival at all costs.
A fresh, Earthbound setting. No faraway planets or deep spaceâthis time, the terror is literally in our own backyard.
A stunning ensemble. A cast stacked with seasoned pros and rising stars will bring emotional depth to every life-or-death decision.
đ Incoming Transmission
