Director Fede Alvarez brings us Alien: Romulus, coming to theaters next month.
The face huggers and chest bursters return with a vengeance in a few weeks when Alien: Romulus finally hits theaters. It’s the latest installment in the Alien franchise from horror director Fede Alvarez (Don’t Breathe, Evil Dead), and the final action-packed trailer just dropped.
