The Alien series is one of the most anticipated projects by science fiction lovers. Now, the FX network has revealed new details about this ambitious production.
The head of the chain, John Landgraf, said that the team in charge hopes to make “big surprises” with this new series. At least we already know one.
As indicated by the executive, the fiction will not have the participation of Ellen Ripley, the iconic character played by Sigourney Weaver.
“Alien takes place before Ripley. It is the first story in the franchise to take place on Earth. So it happens on our planet, right at the end of this century, something like 70 years from now,” explains Landgraf.
In this way, it is confirmed that in the new project we will not see any of the characters that were part of the saga, except of course, its main character.
“Ripley is not going to be a part of it nor any of the Alien characters other than the alien himself.”
According to the main plot, Ellen Ripley was born in 2092 and the events of the first film take place in the year 2122.
Thus, the plot of the series could occur in parallel to what is shown in the film. Prometheuswhere the main couple of that story discovers the star map in 2089.
the series of Alien is directed by Noah Hawley, whom we met for his work in charge of Fargothe adaptation of the hit film by the Coen brothers of the same name.
