FX is going all-in with his next series Alien: earththe first Alien It designs to bring those xenomorphs powered by nightmares on the planet Earth. The ambitious new show is not just another gender experiment such as FX and Showrunner Noah Hawley According to reports, they are positioning it as the next success in terms of prestige on the scale of game of Thrones OR The last of us.
According to Variety, FX wants Alien: earth Being a wide and guided drama by the character who expands the beloved franchise in a new narrative territory. And they are paying great for this.
The series is said to have a budget that could exceed ShōgunThe recent historical epic of FX which cost around $ 250 million. This does Alien: earth One of the most expensive shows ever products for the network.
This huge investment makes sense considering what the show promises. Not only is it the first time that the franchise takes place on earth, but the series introduces new daring ideas honor classic Alien Themes. At the center of the story is Sydney Chandler Like Wendy, a human child whose consciousness is transferred to a synthetic body. And yes, Xenomorph’s threat is coming to Earth – together with some new terrifying creatures.
The terrestrial setting also allows the show to immerse yourself in depth in a theme that has always been at the center of Alien: corporate greed. As Hawley says, the series explores how the planet appears in this future.
“Everything I tried to do is to think of one or two steps forward. It is realistic to think that the billionaires will be trilionary?
Hawley also recognizes the freedom that derives from the construction of something new instead of being weighed down for decades of rigid traditions:
“There is surprisingly small mythology in seven films,” he explains. “It was nice not to have to do it a mythology in what exists, but to start again.”
This flexibility is essential for Hawley and FX. Gina BalianPresident of FX Entertainment, added:
“Everything must not adapt to the way you expect from Marvel. Fans don’t wait for him in this universe. He doesn’t have the same pressure.”
This means Alien: earth He is not trying to create a shared universe in Marvel style, something Hawley has been clear from the beginning. Alien He has always thrived as a series of anthologies, with every film that offers a unique tone and environment.
Personally, I am enthusiastic about the fact that the series seem to evade a little of the tradition Prometheus AND Alien: Alliance. Those films redefined the Xenomorph as a product of the engineered design rather than an unknowable terror, and which has never sat well with many of us. A clean blackboard opens the door for the mystery and terror he did Alien iconic.
Alien: earth It is previewed on August 12 and if Hawley delivers what is promising, we could look at the next series of great genres.
