Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT New details about Alien: Romulus suggest that it’s venturing into a new horror subgenre – something the franchise should've done to begin with. Set to be released in theaters on August 16, 2024, Alien: Romulus will take place between Alien and Aliens as a space crew full of fresh faces inspects a derelict old space station and encounters the bloodthirsty xenomorph.

Alien: Romulus Is Shaping Up To Be An Alien Slasher Movie It's looking like a Friday the 13th movie in space The basic premise of Alien: Romulus is similar to previous installments: it’s about a space crew in the lonely depths of outer space coming into contact with the most terrifying lifeform in the universe. But the crew in this movie will be younger and more inexperienced than ever before. They’re not seasoned professionals like Dallas or Ripley; they’re new to the job.

Why The Alien Franchise Needs New Genres To Thrive There's only so much that can be done with the original premise After Cameron’s pivot to all-out action and Álvarez’s pivot to a blood-soaked slasher, it seems as though the Alien franchise needs new genres to thrive. The reason for that is simple: there’s only so much that can be done with the original premise and genre framework of this franchise. The crux of the series is a killer E.T.
