The long-awaited Alien TV show — titled Alien: Earth — is coming in 2025. After the success of the Predator prequel movie Prey back in 2022 and, Alien: Romulus last summer, and Predator: Killer of Killers in early June, Disney and 20th Century Studios are now developing more projects based on the Alien and Predator franchises, and they'll be coming to both TV and theaters.
While Alien: Romulus was set between the first and second original movies, in the far future and away from Earth, director and writer Noah Hawley's Alien TV series will bring the Xenomorph home. This idea was almost the basis for Alien 3, and the two Alien vs. Predator movies explored it, but here the goal is to honor the DNA of the Alien franchise in a different setting, while continuing some of the commentary on AI that was already started by Ridley Scott's divisive prequels.
