Alien: Earth<\/em> has been renewed for a second season on FX. The deal reportedly comes as part of an overall deal for series creator Noah Hawley with FX and Disney Entertainment Television.<\/p>\n

Variety is reporting from sources that “production on Season 2 of Alien: Earth<\/em> will begin in London in 2026, whereas the first season was shot in Thailand.”<\/p>\n

The first television installment of the Alien franchise, the series’s first eight episode season debuted this past August. Set a few years before the franchise’s debut film, the series concentrates on the aftermath of a deep space explorer ship, returning to earth after a six decade mission. It’s cargo of dangerous alien specimens, including a very familiar xenomorph, are seized by one of Earth’s ruling mega-corporations, the Prodigy Corporation. This bringing it into conflict with Yutani, the mega-corporation that had launched the deep space mission. Trapped in the middle are a group of Prodigy Corporation experimental human-synthetic hybrid, who find that they may have more in common with the alien specimens than with the humans who made them. <\/p>\n

The first season was a big hit with critics and fans alike, as it asked some interesting and timely questions about the intersection of humanity and artificial intelligence, while fleshing out some of the world of the mega-corporations of Earth that have been a lurking, shadowy presence in the background of the Alien<\/strong> franchise since its inception. (The recent Predator<\/strong> franchise film, Predator: Badlands<\/strong> lightly crosses over with the Alien franchise through the appearance of the Weyland-Yutani Corporation still up to their old hi-jinks of scouring the galaxy for dangerous aliens that they can exploit.) Alien: Earth<\/em>‘s first season ended on a cliffhanger, that left fans clamoring for more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
