Premise

Cailee Spaeny stated to Variety that Alien: Romulus will take place between the events of 1979's Alien, and the 1986 sequel Aliens. "They brought the same team from Aliens, the James Cameron film. The same people who built those Xenomorphs actually came on and built ours".

Production

After the acquisition of 21st Century Fox by the Walt Disney Company, it was officially confirmed at the 2019 CinemaCon that future Alien films are in development. In March 2022, it was announced that Fede Álvarez would be writing and directing the film after pitching his own story, and was said to be "unconnected" to the previous films in the franchise, with the project being set to release on Hulu in the United States. By November, Cailee Spaeny had entered negotiations to star. In March 2023, Isabela Merced was cast in an undisclosed role, set to co-star opposite Spaeny. Later that month, David Jonsson, Archie Renaux, Spike Fearn, and Aileen Wu joined the cast in undisclosed roles. In November 2023, it was announced that the film would take place between Alien (1979) and Aliens (1986), with some technical crew members returning from the latter film.

Principal photography took place in Budapest from March 9 to July 3, 2023.

Release

Alien: Romulus was originally scheduled to be released on Hulu, but was switched to a theatrical release by 20th Century Studios on August 16, 2024.
