Alien: Earth is a new science-fiction series developed by Noah Hawley, inspired by the popular Alien film franchise. Set in 2120, two years before the events of the original film, the series explores an Earth dominated by five megacorporations, where humans, cyborgs and synthetics coexist.
Alien: Earth will be broadcast on Disney+ from August 13, 2025.
When the USCSS Maginot spacecraft crash-lands on Earth, Wendy (Sydney Chandler), a hybrid with human consciousness, and a group of soldiers discover an unprecedented alien threat. This series marks the first incursion of Xenomorphs on our planet.
Synopsis: In 2120, after a spaceship crash, a young hybrid woman and a team of soldiers face an alien threat never before seen on Earth.
The series stars Sydney Chandler, Timothy Olyphant, Alex Lawther, Samuel Blenkin, Essie Davis, Adarsh Gourav, Kit Young, David Rysdahl, Babou Ceesay, Jonathan Ajayi, Erana James, Lily Newmark, Diêm Camille and Adrian Edmondson.
With its blend of action, horror and science fiction, Alien: Earth appeals not only to fans of the Alien franchise, but also to a wider audience with a passion for space horror and survival series. If you've enjoyed works such as The Expanse or Prometheus, this series might appeal to you. Noah Hawley promises to bring new depth to this already cult universe, with a return to the very essence of the franchise: palpable tension, fearsome creatures and a desperate struggle for survival. The aesthetics and narrative should also recall the oppressive, claustrophobic atmosphere of Ridley Scott's first film, while exploring new themes around the arrival of the xenomorph on Earth.
With Alien: Earth, Noah Hawley offers a fresh take on the Alien franchise, introducing Xenomorphs to Earth and exploring the implications of a society dominated by corporations and advanced technologies.
