Fede Alvarez directed Alien: Romulus, a film about a group of young people from a distant world who come face-to-face with the most terrifying life form in the universe. Dan O’Bannon, Fede Alvarez and Rodo Sayagues wrote the script. Ridley Scott, the original director of the Alien franchise, produced the movie.
The first trailer is six seconds over one minute, so it doesn’t tell us much. We hear screaming and see a bloodbath and aliens. Alvarez reportedly said the story takes place between the Alien and Aliens movies.
Historically, Romulus was the creator and initial king of Rome. He’s also known for having a twin brother, Remus. Mythology surrounds Romain history at this time with unclear events and institutions.
