I like some of the things i'm hearing and i'm looking forward to it, even though the cast gives me pause. They look like actors from Beverly Hills 90210.

I wonder when we'll get our first trailer for this?

Probably late March/Early April with The First Omen.

Apparently damn near everyone else is not putting ads on the Super Bowl so maybe this one eeks out a spot.

Okay fine it's copium and there is basically zero precedent for a super bowl spot for an August release but...there's a chance

Nah it happens and the precedent is there. There was at least two in 2019: Scary Stories and Hobbs & Shaw both got spots. After the huge success of Avatar 2 and the sinking ship that is Disney's animation/remakes/Marvel/Star Wars, they'll be going HARD on the Fox properties cause that's where the money is.

They're putting their money on the things that have their shit together somewhat (Pixar). And while Alien hasn't had the best track record, the announcement of a new film should at least generate some excitement.

It's possible with  even the rumors that two Nov movies might even get spots- Wicked Part 1 and Gladiator 2.  Should not hold our breath on any of them though. 

[SpiderByte]

Well there was a leaked wicked BTS thing that certainly had enough for a 30 second spot.

EIC of Discussing Film says a trailer is ready and was gonna be apart of the Super Bowl but not anymore.

Why are all the film sites posting about “Alien film gets a title…” ?

 

We’ve known it was Romulus since November.

It's officially confirmed now, at least. Which isn't a major update, but it gives these sites a morsel to report on.

"During a recent round of reshoots, Merced and some nearby cast/crew got to watch a significant chunk of the film on Álvarez’s iPad, and one scene in particular prompted everyone but Merced to look away in horror."

 

“There’s a scene that I’m in, and they all had to turn away. Not one person stayed looking at that iPad because it was so disgusting,” Merced reveals. “And I was watching it like this … (Merced pretends to hold an iPad with a mesmerized look on her face.) I was so excited.”

Damn even the creatives are looking away in horror over what they've made.

Right on time for the 45th anniversary of the original, no less. 

 

Sounds like we're in for what could be the most gnarly Alien movie to date.

 

I love it.

[AMC Theaters Enjoyer]

I would hope that if we were getting an Alien movie from the director from Evil Dead ‘13 and Don’t Breathe it would feel like a movie from him. From the sound of it, it’s heading in that direction at least.
