Everything we know about 'Alien: Earth,' which brings the xenomorphs to TV

The xenomorph on the poster of "Alien: Earth."
  • "Alien: Earth" is a new prequel TV series to the "Alien" franchise.
  • It takes place two years before the first "Alien" movie is set.
  • The FX series starts when a spaceship crashes on Earth with a xenomorph on board.

"Alien: Earth" is bringing the xenomorphs somewhere they've never been before: Television.

The FX TV series developed by Noah Hawley, who created fan-favorite shows including "Legion" and "Fargo," will expand the "Alien" timeline to before Ridley Scott's original 1979 movie.

It's a good time to be a fan of the franchise, since 2024 also saw the release of "Alien: Romulus," which surprised audiences with its ultra-gory sequences and jump scares.

As the title suggests, the 2025 TV series brings the xenomorphs to Earth.

The films often mention that if the deadly creatures make it to Earth, it will be game over for the human race. This will no doubt raise questions for sci-fi fans about the continuity of the long-running movie franchise.

Here's everything we know about "Alien: Earth" so far.

'Alien: Earth' is set two years before the first movie.

The "Alien" timeline is starting to get quite messy with the various sequels and prequels. But Hawley is keeping things fresh by rolling back the clock so that "Alien: Earth" is set two years before the first movie.

The first teaser for the series confirmed the year that it takes place with the ominous tagline: "In 2120, Mother Earth is expecting."

1979's "Alien" takes place in 2122, and by giving the show a little breathing room from the movies, it can hopefully stand on its own two feet.

The synopsis from FX reads: "When a mysterious space vessel crash-lands on Earth, a young woman (Sydney Chandler) and a ragtag group of tactical soldiers make a fateful discovery that puts them face-to-face with the planet's greatest threat in FX's highly anticipated TV series 'Alien: Earth' from creator Noah Hawley."

Hawley told Deadline in September: "There's something about seeing a xenomorph in the wilds of Earth with your own eyes. That is truly chilling to think of it moving here among us, and so I can't tell you under what circumstances you'll see that, but you'll see it — and you're going to lock your door that night."

The 'Alien: Earth' cast includes Timothy Olyphant, Sydney Chandler, and Alex Lawther.

In November 2023, Deadline reported that Sydney Chandler will play Wendy, who has the brain of a child and the body of an adult.

She is joined by "Scream" and "The Mandalorian" star Timothy Olyphant, who plays Kirsch, a synthetic android who looks after Wendy.

They're joined by "Andor" actor Alex Lawther as a soldier called CJ, Samuel Blenkin as a CEO called Boy Kavalier, and Essie Davis as Dame Silvia.

'Alien: Earth' starts in summer 2025.

A new teaser for the show confirmed that it will start airing on Hulu in summer 2025, but didn't give a release date.

The shows the xenomorph's perspective as it scrambles around a mysterious spaceship that is hurtling into the Earth's atmosphere.

It's a unique approach to depicting the iconic creature, so hopefully, Hawley has some tricks up his sleeve to make "Alien: Earth" stand aside from its cinematic counterparts.
