New footage from Alien: Romulus has been unveiled. The upcoming movie will be the ninth installment in the overall franchise, including the two crossovers with the Predator franchise that were released in 2004 and 2007 respectively. Taking place between the original 1979 movie and its 1986 sequel Aliens, the movie, directed by Fede Alvarez, follows colonists who discover the predatory Xenomorph on an abandoned space station. The cast of the movie includes Cailee Spaeny, David Jonsson, Archie Renaux, and Isabela Merced.
Screen Rant was in attendance at CinemaCon in Las Vegas, where they presented new footage from the upcoming Alien: Romulus. The footage kicks off with a scene where Renaux’s character and a synthetic are trapped in a room with Facehuggers while Spaeny’s character Rain Carradine watches helplessly. Although they escape, the Facehuggers make chase down the ship’s hallway. Another clip shows a Chestburster emerging from Aileen Wu while she and Merced are on a small ship that crashes into a fuel cell when Wu thrashes and accidentally kicks the controls.
