Alien: Romulus is a 2024 sci-fi horror film about a group of young space colonisers that come face to face with the most terrifying life form in the universe. It is the seventh movie in the Alien franchise.
The movie was directed by Fede Álvarez (Evil Dead 2013; Don’t Breathe) from a screenplay co-written with Rodo Sayagues, based on the characters created by Dan O’Bannon and Ronald Shusett. It was produced by Ridley Scott and Michael Pruss.
The Scott Free Productions-20th Century Studios production stars Cailee Spaeny, Isabela Merced, David Jonsson, Archie Renaux, Spike Fearn and Aileen Wu.

Director Fede Álvarez previously told Games Radar, “It takes place twenty years after the first film. Technology in the world of Alien can change vastly, but I think it’s not dependent on time,” he adds. “It’s dependent on place. Where you are. So the characters of this movie and the world are very blue-collar. The technology is still very low-tech and analogue. And, look, I’m a kid from the ‘80s. Any monitor with some VHS tracking issues puts a lot of joy in my heart.”
Álvarez also noted that Alien: Romulus takes place “decades before Aliens,” which was set in 2179. The original Alien was set in 2122, which means the events of Alien: Romulus occur in the year 2142.
Release:
Alien: Romulus will be released theatrically worldwide by 20th Century from August 16, 2024.
