Alien: Earth | Teaser - Reflections | FX

In space, no one can hear you scream, but on Earth, all bets are off. The new teaser for Alien: Earth features a terrifying Xenomorph ready to wreak havoc on humanity.

“In 2120, Mother Earth is expecting,” a voice-over says at the beginning of the teaser before cutting to horrifying screeches and howls from an alien and a woman.  The teaser also revealed FX’s Alien: Earth’s release date: It will in the summer of 2025 on Hulu.

Alien: Earth follows a group of survivors after their vessel crashes on Earth. While searching the wreckage, the crew discovers a vicious predator, unlike anything they’ve ever seen. The company now finds itself in a fight for survival, and how they handle the new threat will alter the future of Earth.

Alien: Earth’s cast features Sydney Chandler, Alex Lawther, Timothy Olyphant, Samuel Blenkin, Essie Davis, Adarsh Gourav, Kit Young, David Rysdahl, Babou Ceesay, Lily Newmark, Diêm Camille, Adrian Edmondson Moe Bar-El, and Sandra Yi Sencindiver.

Alien: Earth is created, written, and directed by Noah Hawley, who executive produces with franchise creator Ridley Scott. Hawley is one of FX’s most prominent creators, with shows like Fargo and Legion to his credit. Alien: Earth is a prequel series set two years before the events of 1979’s Alien.

The Alien franchise experienced a resurgence in popularity thanks to Fede Álvarez’s Alien: Romulus starring Cailee Spaeny and David Jonsson. Released in August, Romulus received positive reviews and grossed over $350 million against an $80 million budget. Last month, 20th Century Studios President Steve Asbell revealed Álvarez is working on a Romulus sequel.

After two years in post-production, the Red Sonja reboot finally has an exciting update.

Per Deadline, Signature Entertainment has acquired the UK and Irish rights to Red Sonja. The film from Millennium Media is expected to be released later this year.
“Red Sonja epitomizes the kind of film we’re looking for at Signature – an epic story in a fantasy-laden world with a strong commercial feel to its execution, which made it immediately appealing to us," said Signature Entertainment’s Acquisitions Manager Begüm Kayacan Parodi in a statement. "We’re looking forward to introducing UK and Irish audiences to Matilda Lutz’s sword-swinging huntress later this year.”
Red Sonja is based on the comic book series by writer Roy Thomas and artist Barry Windsor-Smith. Robert E. Howard's Red Sonya of Rogatino in the short story The Shadow of the Vulture partially inspired Red Sonja. The fantasy movie follows Red Sonja, a barbarian huntress who united a group of warriors to take on the evil Dragan The Magnificent and his deadly bride, Dark Annisia.
Matilda Lutz headlines Red Sonja as the titular huntress. The rest of the ensemble includes Robert Sheehan, Wallis Day, Michael Bisping, Luca Pasqualino, Rhona Mitra, Martyn Ford, Ben Radcliffe, Eliza Matengu, Veronica Ferres, Phillip Winchester, and Trevor Eve.
