DESCRIPTION:
(from The Walt Disney Company's press release, December 2020) FX is moving quickly to bring audiences the first television series based on one of the greatest sciencefiction horror classics ever made: "Alien." Alien will be helmed by Fargo and Legion's Noah Hawley stepping into the creator/executive producer chair, and FX is in advanced negotiations with Academy Award winner, Sir Ridley Scott - director of the first "Alien" film and the sequel, "Alien: Covenant" - to join the project as an Executive Producer. Set not too far into our future, it's the first Alien story set on Earth - and by blending both the timeless horror of the first "Alien" film with the non-stop action of the second, it's going to be a scary thrill ride that will blow people back in their seats.
