One of the biggest disappointments about Prometheus was that it was only an Alien film in spirit. With Ridley Scott’s forthcoming Alien: Covenant, the title speaks for itself. While the trailer isn’t arriving until tomorrow, Fox did drop this epic teaser that shows a Xenomorph egg that opens up to presumably give birth to a facehugger!
Watch Bloody Disgusting for all of the trailer coverage the second it crash lands this Christmas.
Katherine Waterston (Inherent Vice, Jobs, The Babysitters) heads the new crew with Demian Bichir and Danny McBride (“Eastbound and Down”), as well as Alex England (Gods of Egypt), Billy Crudup, Amy Seimetz (A Horrible Way to Die, “The Killing”), Jussie Smollett (“Empire”), Carmen Ejogo, and Callie Hernandez (Machete Kills). James Franco is also confirmed to be among them all.
Michael Fassbender returns as the android David, as well as Walter.
Bound for a remote planet on the far side of the galaxy, the crew of the colony ship Covenant discovers what they think is an uncharted paradise, but is actually a dark, dangerous world — whose sole inhabitant is the “synthetic” David (Michael Fassbender), survivor of the doomed Prometheus expedition.
Alien: Covenant – here’s everything we know so far – takes off for Paradise on May 19, 2017.
