A Xenomorph in Alien: Romulus
Summary Fede Álvarez's Alien: Romulus is one of the best-reviewed Alien films since the 1979 original, and it makes some notable expansions to the lore of the previous installments. The classic Ridley Scott Alien movie was lightning in a bottle, mixing sci-fi with horror elements to create an entirely unique, existentially daunting cinematic experience.
The substance is meant to be used to improve human life, so Kay takes it when she's brutally injured by a Xenomorph. While it seems to save her for some time, the untested substance eventually transforms her unborn baby into an entirely new life form, and it's terrifying. The being has the paleness and some features of the Engineers, along with elongated human elements and aspects of the typical Xenomorph, including its hostility.

Navarro is the unlucky first death in Alien: Romulus, who's killed by the chestburster. Shortly after, Bjorn and Kay find a cocoon on the wall, demonstrating how the chestbursters mature. The alien creatures often spend most of the films off-screen, so this was the first time the films have actually shown how they develop. Bjorn tries to zap the fleshy cocoon in order to kill the creature before it can grow, but it bleeds acid, resulting in one of Alien: Romulus' most gory deaths.
In the facehugger scene early on in Alien: Romulus, Andy reveals that the creatures track their prey using heat and sound. The biology of the various alien creatures isn't vital for enjoying the films, and their mystique actually has some of its own appeal, but this detail provides a simple, satisfying answer to one of the franchise's oldest questions.
