Overview

• The series is confirmed to premiere on FX and Hulu on August 12, 2025.
• Hawley’s show exists in parallel with the existing film timeline, deliberately abandoning elements from Prometheus and Covenant to forge a standalone prequel set in 2120.
• Previews highlight the introduction of rival megacorporations on Earth vying for Xenomorph DNA and the debut of post-human leads Wendy, a human-synthetic hybrid, and Kirsh, a cyborg antagonist.
• Behind-the-scenes footage teases multiple novel alien species—including tentacled eyeballs and centipede-like creatures—beyond the classic Xenomorph menace.
• FX’s most expensive series to date deploys its unprecedented budget to foreground socio-political themes of extreme corporate control and climate-driven crisis.
