Overview

• Episode 5, titled “In Space, No One…,” was written and directed by series creator Noah Hawley.
• Hawley confirms the production rebuilt key interiors using the original Nostromo blueprints to match the 1979 film’s look.
• Babou Ceesay says he intentionally concealed a warmer side of Morrow until this chapter and reveals his real daughter appears in the flashbacks.
• Cast and reviewers describe the installment as a slow-burn, claustrophobic “mini‑Alien,” with Ceesay noting the shoot lasted more than five weeks.
• Hawley underscores a critique of tech‑billionaire recklessness through the season’s corporate storyline, as the episode broadens the show’s creature palette with practical effects.
