FX Alien: earth He closed his first season with an ending that changed the franchise on his head. In a world already persecuted by the Xenomorphs, they are children, or at least the hybrids of human mentality in adult bodies, which now call the blows.
In the center is Wendy (Sydney Chandler), whose decision to grasp the power raises the central question of the series: will you choose humanity or something much more dangerous?
Wendy takes control
At the end of the season, Wendy gathered her hybrid companions and even enrolled a Xenomorphic in Cage Kirsh (Timothy Olyphant), Tomorrow (Babou ceesay), Kavalier boy (Samuel Blekin) and Dame Sylvia (Essie Davis). His declaration to “govern” leaves both his allies and his brother Joe (Alex Lawther) question what has become.
“This is the central question of the series, right? Wendy will choose” human “or” more “?” Hawley explained. “His brother is realizing that any older brother has had really disappeared at this point.”
Hawley underlines the risk of giving children to children. “Their executive function is not exceptional and their sense of consequences is not necessarily completely developed. There is a hubris there.” Wendy could believe that his Xenomorph ally can be “good”, but the public knows it differently.
Xenomorph’s dilemma
Give Wendy to control an Xenomorph has opened new narrative possibilities, but Hawley underlines the moral weight of that choice.
“The moment he releases this creature, he kills a lot of people and does not look. He is not facing the consequences of that decision,” he said. “If part of his power is causing the injury or death of human beings, then where is his moral hill?”
Violence in Alien: earth It is not just a show since Hawley underlines that it should remain significant and confront her expectations. “I never want violence to be entertainment. I always want it to be of great impact and significant.”
Man vs. Machine
Another key moment in the final was the long clash between Morrow, a Cybernetically improved human being and Kirsh, a synthetic being that crogsulates in his superiority.
“Morrow’s Hubris Hubris” The man will always win. It is a question of will. “So 25 seconds later, he’s suffocated from the car,” said Hawley.
For Hawley, the fight concerned the belief. “It becomes a question if you believe in the authority or if you believe in the rebellion.”
Do not count the bad guys outside
With the figures of authority put in cage and humiliated, the stage seems to be fixed for Wendy’s domain. But Hawley warns that humiliation makes only the bad more dangerous.
“The worst thing you could do is humiliate them or deliver them a defeat, because it makes them more dangerous in the long term.”
The alien eye bulb
One of the strangest and most disturbing moments of the ending was the alien eyeball that entered Arthur (David Rysdahl) body. Hawley has made fun of her meaning for the future.
“If Arthur is the moral center of the show, and now it is not even allowed to rest in peace, there is a certain type of final corruption that happens, in a traffic light for pets. To take the thing you love and bring it back since others can really be the most disconcerting for an audience.”
Looking to the future
While Alien: earth It takes place before 1979 Ridley Scott’s original 1979 AlienHawley is not hurrying to link directly to that story.
“Much of the construction of the world was to build something that was consistent with himself, who worked within the construct of the first two films films,” he said. The connections could arrive later, but Hawley focuses on the resolution of today’s problems, not tomorrow.
As for season 2? He is still in the hands of Disney. “No, it is conversational at this point,” Hawley said about writing new episodes. “The show is about to wrap and we will have a really complete meaning of what the public was. I guess a decision would follow shortly after. The moment they shoot the initial gun, they are out of the blockade.”
For now, fans are left to meditate on Wendy’s choices, the fate of the hybrids and the disturbing promise of that alien eye bulb.
