Overview

• FX presented an encore screening of the Alien: Earth pilot at New York Comic Con followed by a Q&A moderated by TV critic Alan Sepinwall with cast members and executive producer David W. Zucker.
• Zucker read a congratulatory letter from Ridley Scott praising the series for renewing the franchise’s spirit and its faithful use of original design elements.
• No renewal has been announced for a second season, though the cast discussed the possibility onstage and audience enthusiasm was evident.
• The team spotlighted practical, on-set creature work, describing puppetry, animatronics, and a dedicated xenomorph performer that shaped the show’s tactile feel.
• Cast recounted filming in Bangkok under extreme heat and noted strike-era adjustments to scripting workflows, and the first season is now streaming on Hulu.
