Did you spot the Engineers? What about the chest-burster? And are those Shaw’s dog tags?!
When the brand new Alien: Covenant trailer hit last night, we were beside ourselves with excitement – who am I kidding, we STILL are. The trailer, which was originally supposed to debut today, came a bit earlier than expected, and judging by the reactions that poured in throughout the night, it seems that pretty much everyone is in agreement that it was absolutely EPIC.
We saw many new things in the trailer, including the first real glimpses of the Neomorph and the film’s classic Xenomorph (in daylight!), but the intense footage moved so fast that we pretty sure we probably missed some things… even though we hit the rewind button several times. So we decided to pull 60+ screen-grabs from the new trailer and put together a little gallery for ya.

Katherine Waterston (Inherent Vice, Jobs, The Babysitters), doing her best impersonation of Ellen Ripley (Sigourney Weaver), stars with Michael Fassbender returning as Prometheus‘ android David (and Walter), with a crew that includes 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 also has a role, which was confirmed in this fun crew photo.
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
Scott had previously promised to answer questions that left Prometheus viewers confused: “Covenant is really going to show you who did it and why.”
Alien: Covenant takes off for Paradise on May 19, 2017.
And some GIFs for good measure!
