Noah Hawley says his Alien prequel series will ignore the backstory provided by Alien: Covenant and Prometheus.
"Ridley and I have talked about this – and many, many elements of the show." Hawley explained to The Hollywood Reporter. "For me, and for a lot of people, this 'perfect life form' – as it was described in the first film – is the product of millions of years of evolution that created this creature that may have existed for a million years out there in space. The idea that, on some level, it was a bioweapon created half an hour ago, that's just inherently less useful to me."
