The Alien franchise returns to its terrifying roots with Alien: Romulus (2025), the latest sci-fi horror installment directed by Fede Álvarez. This new chapter explores a fresh yet chillingly familiar story, blending the claustrophobic dread of the original Alien with the intense action of Aliens.
Set on the remote, uncharted planet of Romulus, a group of young colonists embarks on a terraforming mission, only to uncover an ancient and deadly secret beneath the planet’s surface. When they disturb a long-dormant Xenomorph infestation, their mission turns into a horrifying battle for survival.
The official trailer teases haunting visuals, including eerie alien landscapes, dimly lit corridors, and relentless survival sequences. As Xenomorphs begin their hunt, the colonists not only face an external alien threat but also internal conflicts and paranoia, adding a psychological horror layer to the already nerve-wracking tension.
Fans are given a glimpse of terrifying new Xenomorph forms, along with high-stakes action, suspenseful hide-and-seek moments, and intense betrayals. With no way to call for help and no clear escape, the crew must rely on their instincts to survive the nightmare unfolding around them.
Alien: Romulus promises to honor the franchise’s legacy while bringing new horrors to a fresh generation of fans. Will the colonists make it off Romulus alive, or will the Xenomorphs claim another world? Find out when Alien: Romulus invades theaters in 2025!
