Next year will mark the 40th anniversary of Ridley Scott’s Alien, and we’ve been hearing rumblings that certain things are in the works as part of the celebration. Recently, it was rumored that some sort of TV series was being developed, but we have no official word on any of that just yet. But this week, the brand’s social accounts are teasing something else.
Over on the official Alien Anthology Instagram account, you’ll find two posts (below) that are hashtagged “Amanda Ripley,” and the motion images are part of a “6-Part Dossier Exposing the Secret History of Weyland-Yutani.” Each of the images also indicate that “The Alien Universe Expands 2019,” which sure has piqued our curiosity.
Amanda Ripley, of course, is Ellen Ripley’s daughter, introduced in the video game Alien: Isolation. We do know she’ll be back in next year’s comic book sequel, Aliens: Resistance.
But just what are these Instagram posts teasing? Only time will tell…
