Fear will take new forms as FX’s “Alien: Earth” is gearing up for its second season.
Sydney Chandler tells Deadline that production is slated to commence in May, although the star has yet to see any new scripts.
While the first season filmed in Thailand, “Alien: Earth” Season 2 is shooting at London’s historic Pinewood Studios — home of the original Alien as well as Aliens, Alien 3, and Prometheus.
Execute producer/producing director Dana Gonzales shared on Instagram, “Super excited to start the journey of [“Alien: Earth”] season 2. World building in the Alien universe birthplace.”
Named one of Bloody Disgusting’s 10 Best Horror Television Series of 2025, “Alien: Earth” premiered on FX last August. Following strong viewership and critical response, it was renewed for a second season in November.
“I’m grateful to continue exploring the world of ‘Alien: Earth’ alongside our partners, cast, and crew as we begin the next chapter,” series creator Noah Hawley (“Fargo,” “Legion”) previously commented.
Set in the year 2120, five corporations wield the power of nations, and proprietary advancements in technology provide the promise of a new tomorrow. When a mysterious space vessel crash-lands on Earth, a young woman and a ragtag group of tactical soldiers make a fateful discovery that puts them face-to-face with the planet’s greatest threat.
Chandler stars with Timothy Olyphant, Alex Lawther, Samuel Blenkin, Babou Ceesay, Adrian Edmondson, David Rysdahl, Essie Davis, Lily Newmark, Erana James, Adarsh Gourav, Jonathan Ajayi, Kit Young, Diêm Camille, Moe Bar-El, and Sandra Yi Sencindiver.
