Upcoming Movie Sensation
Hang onto your cinema popcorn! The much-awaited ‘Alien: Romulus’, directed by Fede Álvarez, is going to light the cinemas soon. This new addition to the Alien franchise is set to stage its premiere on August 16. Die-hard fans of the Alien franchise are excited to see what Álvarez will bring to this cherished movie series.
Aesthetic Resemblance to the Originals
Fede Álvarez, in an interview, showed his determined loyalty to the original Alien aesthetics. He indicated how important it was for him to recreate the ambience and settings of Ridley Scott’s original ‘Alien’ movie. Even the sequel, ‘Aliens’ by James Cameron, is never far from Álvarez’s thoughts.
The director worked days and nights with production designer Naaman Marshall, to ensure the look and feel of ‘Alien: Romulus’ reflected that of the original ‘Alien’. Álvarez took great pains to make sure his film emulated the appearance of the first movie, right down to the lighting.
Birth of a New Alien ‘Alien: Romulus’
This cinematic marvel originated from a brainstorming session between Álvarez and Ridley Scott, who later gave the project a thumbs up. Ironically, it was Álvarez’s knack for narrating a story that won the approval of Steve Asbell, the big boss at 20th Century Studios.
Understanding ‘Alien: Romulus’
This movie does not abandon its roots but also stands on its own two feet. Though ‘Alien: Romulus’ might not seem linked with the previous Alien films, it pays heed to their continuity. It fits snugly between the original ‘Alien’ and its sequel, effectively bridging the gap.
The film takes the audience on a thrilling trip to a derelict space station deep in the cosmos. A group of naive space colonizers come face to face with a terrifying alien life form.
Star-Studded ‘Alien: Romulus’
The cast of ‘Alien: Romulus’ is full of talent. The movie stars actors such as Cailee Spaeny, Isabela Merced, David Jonsson, Archie Renaux, Spike Fearn and Aileen Wu. Given the colourful palette of characters and suspenseful plot, it’s a roller coaster ride of thrill and horror.
Age Rating
I’ve got to tell you, this flick isn’t for everyone. ‘Alien: Romulus’ was awarded an R rating due to its gory violence and language. So, fans of Álvarez’s previous work, like ‘Evil Dead 2013’ and ‘Don’t Breathe’ may have a fair idea of what to expect.
The Countdown Begins

The buzz is high, and all eyes will be watching how well Álvarez crafted the movie, while retaining the original flavor of the Alien franchise. Leave a comment and share your thoughts.
