Hollywood<\/a> raises anticipation high as Emmy-winning showrunner, Noah Hawley<\/a>, spills some exciting details about his upcoming prequel series to the thriller<\/a>, Alien<\/a>. Projected under FX<\/a>, the series has attracted numerous fans who are eager to see a fresh yet loyal spin on the iconic Alien franchise<\/a>. The series, set nearly 70 years in the future, offers a peek into an Earth before<\/a> the Era of the Alien took over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The revered Fargo<\/a><\/em> showrunner sat down with KCRW\u2019s The Business<\/a>, hosted by Hollywood Reporter<\/a> Editor-At-Large, Kim Masters, sharing insights about the upcoming series and its connection with the existing Alien franchise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hawley elaborates on the series as more than just another monster story. It<\/a> explores the line humanity walks between its primal past and artificial intelligence-imbued future, both paths offering deadly consequences: \u201cIt\u2019s the story of humanity trapped between its primordial parasitic past and its AI future, and they\u2019re both trying to kill us. So, there\u2019s nowhere to go. It\u2019s really a story of does humanity deserve to survive?”<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hawley extends his praise for Ridley<\/a> Scott’s 1979 original, showing reverence for the film’s subtle mix of primal horror<\/a> and futuristic AI elements. He cites the film as an inspiration for the series, aiming to recreate the sense of thrill and fear embedded in the original. “There’s something really intriguing about exploring humanity in all its goods and evils…” he says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Deciding how much of the franchise’s existing backstory should be included in his series was a difficult task for Hawley. The series ignores the narrative from<\/a> Ridley Scott’s prequel films, Prometheus<\/em> and Alien: Covenant<\/a><\/em>, which suggest the aliens were created as bioweapons. Instead, Hawley prefers to portray them as frightening outcomes of evolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Featuring a star-studded cast including Essie Davis, Alex Lawther, and Timothy Olyphant<\/a>, the highly-anticipated Alien series temporarily halted production due to the SAG-AFTRA<\/a> strike in August. However, the crew is expected to return to their filming in Thailand soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Craving more phenomenal movies and TV shows<\/a> in moments of leisure?
