Director/writer #FedeAlvarez and cast members from the upcoming sci-hi/horror-thriller #AlienRomulus,” including #CaileeSpaeny, #DavidJonsson, #ArchieRenaux, #IsabelaMerced, and #SpikeFearn took to the stage of Hall H at the San Diego Convention Center earlier today for a special #SDCC panel in partnership with IMAX. Tickets are now available for purchase at Fandango or wherever tickets are sold. The film from producer Ridley Scott opens exclusively in theaters nationwide August 16, 2024. #SDCC2024 During the panel, which featured exclusive footage from the film as well as special taped content from Ridley Scott, Guillermo del Toro, and Dan Trachtenberg, a swarm of facehuggers flooded the room, overtaking the stage and facehugging a few attendees in the process. The culmination of the stunt was the iconic chestburster moment on the floor of Hall H, which surprised and terrified Comic-Con attendees. At the conclusion of the panel, the 6,000 guests were gifted their own facehugger mask, which they wore for a group photo with Alvarez and the cast. “Alien: Romulus” takes the phenomenally successful “Alien” franchise back to its roots: While scavenging the deep ends of a derelict space station, a group of young space colonizers come face to face with the most terrifying life form in the universe. Fede Alvarez directs from a screenplay he wrote with frequent collaborator Rodo Sayagues based on characters created by Dan O’Bannon and Ronald Shusett. “Alien: Romulus” is produced by Ridley Scott, who directed the original “Alien” and produced and directed the series’ entries “Prometheus” and “Alien: Covenant,” Michael Pruss, and Walter Hill, with Fede Alvarez, Elizabeth Cantillon, Brent O’Connor, and Tom Moran serving as executive producers.
