It’s suddenly an incredibly fruitful time to be an Alien fan. Hot on the heels of last year’s Alien: Romulus, both Alien: Earth and Predator: Badlands release this year, with Alien: Earth hitting screens in a matter of days. Despite this sudden influx of Xeno-connected storytelling, the projects are all on “separate tracks” according to Alien: Earth creator Noah Hawley and producer David Zucker. But Hawley, for one, hopes his new show’s earth-bound backstory becomes standard for the series going forward.
Speaking to GamesRadar+ in London, Hawley notes that while “the film division and the TV division [at Disney] are existing in their own worlds,” he’s had conversations with Romulus director Fede Alvarez and Badlands director Dan Trachtenberg about their unconnected Alien universe.
