"The biggest movie of my career." – Shawn Levy, Director / Writer

And now, for what is probably my most anticipated movie this year…

​

"Alien: Romulus" (Aug. 16, 2024)

Director: Fede Álvarez

I wrote about Romulus around 3 months ago, but now it's right around the corner, releasing in theaters in 2 weeks from today.

The director shared with us some photos of the sets and props!

This first one is a look inside the USCSS Corbelan IV. Fede said that it β€œis quite an old ship, except for a few new mods, like the newly installed Airlock panel. What other ship had this same system?”

If you've played the game Alien: Isolation, this next photo Fede shared might look familiar as one of the "save" points, or checkpoints throughout the game.

And lastly, a photo showing off the model work by Ian Hunter, who has done work on films like Interstellar, The Dark Knight, Inception, and many others as a Visual Effects supervisor.

Great work to Ian Hunter and his team. πŸ‘πŸΌ Can't wait to see this on the big screen.
