"Alien: Romulus" latest spoilers revealed: new face hugger debuts

Recently, foreign media World of Reel reported that the new Alien movie "Alien: Romulus" held a preview some time ago, after which some plot spoilers were exposed online.

Alien: Romulus tells the story of a group of interstellar scavengers who leave their own planet and come to an abandoned space station to steal equipment. As a result, they encounter face huggers and aliens, which leads to a bloody battle. Among them is the heroine Rain, played by actress Carly Spaeny. She has a cyborg brother named Andy, played by actor David Ronson. They come from a colonized planet with a strong industrial nature, and the people on this colonized planet do not like cyborgs.

The space station that the scavengers boarded is called "Romulus Station". It is a research station of Weyland-Tanggu Corporation. It was once very lively, but later it was abandoned for some reason. Now it is full of aliens and face huggers, and they are some new species. The face hugger has barbs on its limbs, which means it is a new and more ferocious species.

Alien: Romulus will be connected to both Alien 1 and Prometheus. The classic alien in Alien 1, known as Big Guy, was thrown into space. In this movie, Big Guy did not die, and even in space, he still maintained a weak life activity. Weyland-Yugu Company recovered him from space and took him to Romulus Station for research. One of the cyborgs named Rook extracted a substance with alien DNA from the alien through reverse biochemical technology, which is the black water in Prometheus. In Romulus, it is called Prometheus Strain. Scientists at Romulus Station want to create a universal drug that can effectively fight all diseases by studying this substance. At the same time, they used black water to conduct various experiments and created new face huggers and aliens.

The story of "Alien: Romulus" takes place between "Alien 1" and "Alien 2". Fede Alvarez is the director and Ridley Scott is the producer. Carly Spaeny, Isabella Merced, Ailing Wu, Spike Finn, David Ronsong and Archie Renault star in the film. The film is scheduled to be released on August 16, 2024.
