Fede Álvarez’s Alien: Romulus will be scaring audiences this summer. Today, they dropped the first look at the film, which stars Cailee Spaeny in a Ripley-like role and which is set between the first two Alien movies, with an entirely new cast of characters.

The buzz is really strong on this one, and the hard-to-satisfy Ridley Scott, who is a producer via Scott Free, has apparently given it his blessing. Here is the official synopsis:
The sci-fi/horror-thriller takes the phenomenally successful ‘Alien’ franchise back to its roots: While scavenging the deep ends of a derelict space station, a group of young space colonizers come face to face with the most terrifying life form in the universe.
The first poster was also revealed today:
Alien: Romulus is the latest effort by Disney to revitalize the IP they acquired from 20th Century Fox in 2019. In 2022 they debuted new Avatar and Predator movies, and this year they have new Planet of the Apes and Alien projects. Also today the first two episodes of X-Men ’97, which used to be under Fox’s umbrella, dropped on Disney Plus. Noah Hawley is working on a separate Alien series for FX.
Alien: Romulus comes out in theaters on August 16.
Miguel Fernández is a Spanish student that has movies as his second passion in life. His favorite movie of all time is The Lord of the Rings, but he is also a huge Star Wars fan. However, fantasy movies are not his only cup of tea, as authors like Scorsese, Fincher, Kubrick or Hitchcock have been an obsession for him since he started to understand the language of filmmaking. He is that guy who will watch a black and white movie, just because it is in black and white.
