Alien: Romulus Release Date, Cast, and What We Know So Far

When Can We See "Alien: Romulus"?

Looks like we are getting a brand new addition to the Alien franchise with "Alien: Romulus" directed by Fede Alvarez. It's set to happen somewhere between "Alien" (from 1979) and "Aliens" (1986). Talk about a retro twist!

Who's Behind The Scenes?

  • Ridley Scott, the big boss of the "Alien" series. We know he started it all. He has been pretty open about how impressed he is with Fede Alvarez. He even wrote a super cool letter, to him, which said to "not f up" when he got started on his movie! How epic is that?!
  • Fede Alvarez's style is a little bit different from Ridley Scott, because Alvarez's really is into horror films, but both love the creepy vibe that makes the Xenomorph so scary, so maybe there will be some scary stuff going down!
  • This whole new movie is part of the Alien franchise, but the amazing thing is that it will be all on its own! New characters and an entirely new storyline! That's super interesting since we haven't seen this part of the "Alien" story, before!

What About the Release Date?

Sadly, we don't have a set date for this new Movie, but we know we have to wait a bit!

Who Will Star?

  • This one is secret, as Alien: Romulus is a standalone film, it will introduce an entirely new group!
  • Fans are definitely excited to see those creepy Xenomorphs in action - those things always make "Alien" so freaky.
  • We all have that "Alien Vs. Predator" series! What's cool is that Alvarez wants to give this movie a very tight, enclosed feel like the original film from 1979, which was really awesome!

Are there any clues about what's to come?

Even though there isn't much out about "Alien: Romulus," we do know this movie's got that same kind of claustrophobic vibe as the original. Alvarez said that Ridley Scott's advice, with those strong themes and that science fiction universe are things he wanted to follow!

If you like the original "Alien" and its incredible characters - you definitely want to be on the lookout for "Alien: Romulus"! If you're looking for a super scary and awesome "Alien" story with all of that amazing history and that cool Xenomorph design, it's definitely one to be excited about!

This really shows just how many amazing creative voices have shaped this science fiction universe. There's definitely a long Alien franchise history with tons of new movies and characters!

The great thing about "Alien" - and why it’s a cult classic film is that every movie seems to be different in some cool way!
