About the Series
According to Variety, the new series is set in 2120, two years before the original “Alien” film and 16 years after “Alien: Covenant,” the story follows the crash of the USCSS Maginot on Earth. Wendy (Sydney Chandler) and a team of soldiers make a terrifying discovery that threatens the planet.
The show is created by Noah Hawley (“Fargo”, “Legion”) and has already drawn critical praise, with one reviewer calling it âan apex of late â70s cinema in look and feelâ while expanding the “Alien” universe in new ways.
Between its double-episode premiere, weekly rollout, and a creative team determined to push the boundaries of sci-fi television, “Alien: Earth” is shaping up to be one of FXâs most daring projects yet.
With streaming access on Hulu in the U.S. and Disney+ internationally, fans around the world can follow the story as it unfolds.
