Alien Earth: we finally know if the Disney+ series will have a season 2

An officialization that we no longer expected. While the final episode ofAlien: Earth was broadcast on September 24 on Disney+the future of the series had until now remained very uncertain.

Even its creator Noah Hawley was evasive about a potential sequel. But after long weeks of silence, the Xenomorph series has finally received the long-awaited renewal this Tuesday.

Xéno’s rab!

Season 2 of Alien: Earth is therefore fast approaching, and it is also due to launch production in London next year. A change of scenery compared to the first season, which was filmed in Thailand. The information was relayed on the networks of the series via a short video.

In addition to this formalization, Noah Hawley has just signed a major new contract with the FX studio and Disney Entertainment Television (rumors speak of millions of dollars), which should allow him to continue to develop programs in the long term with them.

The president of FX, John Landgraf, was also delighted with the extension of this collaboration with the creator of the series Fargo And Legion : “It’s our immense privilege to have worked with Noah for over a decade on some of FX’s most popular and successful series, and we are thrilled to extend our collaboration for many more years.”

He continues: “Noah continues to surprise us with stories of remarkable originality, and his unique talent for bringing them to brilliant life, as a director, producer and writer, makes him exceptional. We can’t wait to begin work on the next season of Alien: Earth, as well as other equally exciting projects currently in development.”

As a reminder, the series Alien: Earth takes place in 2120 – two years before the events of the film Alien, the eighth passenger – while Earth is ruled by five super corporations.

In this reality, cyborgs and synthetics coexist with humans, but everything changes when a young CEO launches hybrids, humanoid robots equipped with human consciousness and whose prototype Wendy, marks a new stage in the race for immortality.

But when a mysterious spaceship, the USCSS Maginot, crashes on Earth after an interstellar journey, Wendy and the other hybrids discover mysterious life forms, more terrifying than anything we could have imagined.

The cast includes Sydney Chandler (Don’t Worry Darling), Timothy Olyphant (Justified), Alex Lawther (The End of the Fucking World), Essie Davis (A day), Samuel Blenkin (Black Mirror) and Babou Ceesay (Into the Badlands).

• Watch the trailer for the series:

Alien: Earth was the first television series in the cult franchise initiated by Ridley Scott’s film in 1979. If at The Digitals we are among the people who are rather convinced by the show, the last episodes and their questionable choices have cooled our ardor. The program therefore has a lot to do to rectify the situation and offer a better quality season 2.

While it is too early to estimate a release date for this second season, The Digitals will obviously keep you informed. The entire series Alien: Earth is still available on the Disney+ streaming platform.
