20th Century Fox release intense new Alien: Covenant poster!

20th Century Fox just revealed an insane new poster for Alien: Covenant! Unlike the first two posters which had a fairly ominous and simplistic look to them, this new variant features a full view of the "Protomorph" Xenomorph surrounded by what look to be dead Engineer bodies and other Aliens! The background looks very similar to Alien hive walls as well.

Ultimately this poster seems to depict a collage of chaos, showing the overthrow of the Engineer society by the infection of the hostile Alien race. The path to PARADISE begins in Hell... Check it out:

This just confirms what happened to the engineers on the planet: They were attacked by a xenomorph hive ;)

I see a Queen Alien head, and a crapload of stuff.  Maybe the Engineers in the dome scene were all killed off by Aliens??

Maybe I am hallucinating from all my meds I currently am on, but it sure looks to be a female body in the lower right portion of the poster. It also doesn't look it it is being attacked so much as in travail (childbirth..?)

 

Anybody else see this..?

I see it looks like a female breast, but it could be the Engineers crazy pecks? :)

I believe that Queen crest you're referring to is actually the top of another Mural, like the one found in the Ampule room in Prometheus. "Just another Tomb", perhaps someone opened the tomb?

Is this just a random poster made or is this trying to hint something on the actual movie itself?

I think the poster showed what happened to the engineers on the planet, just a guess ;)

@Movie fan  I agree.  The bodies being attacked look like the images we have seen from the trailers and set photos.  Maybe an outbreak occured with the Xenos and and the Engineers decided to do a mass kill off to control it?

I figured the Xenomorphs were responsible for the fall of the Engineers. But looking at the Xenos themselves, they look more like Protomorphs than Xenomorphs. They lack the bio-mechanical design we know. That means the Protomorph is just as vicious as the Xenomorph and just as deadly.

Renaissance Art meets H.R Giger, absolutely beautiful!

Definitely appears to be a mural and what could be a female 'Engineer'!

suwhited interesting, or could it be the leg from the facehugged engineer below with his foot hidden behind the head? It's difficult to tell when they're practically all merged together. Could totally be a female engineer though.

Good day. Longtime lurker. Really enjoy the thoughtful discussion on one of my favorite movies. I had an observation on this poster. None of these Aliens are showing there inner jaw. Am I wrong on that? Is it possible that these Aliens are the protomorphs or an iteration before the Xenomorph?

Chris yep it could be just that too keep up with the ambiguous spirit, but I also feel like it could hint at something that will either appear or be mentioned in AC or in any of the planned following films.

Too many things were briefly introduced and then hastily left behind in Prometheus as well as in pictures leading up to the film, with little to no payoff, which of course led to a lot of questions.

We ought to get at least a few more hints or explanations about the whole scope of events in AC. 

I'm sure David has at least something to say after 10 years.

Thats the setting I want to see regarding the visual look, and think I can speak for a lot of fans out there. Very dark, gigeresque environment in a very huge scale and engineers!

It's rumored to be a set piece in the film, within the large cathedral depicting the story.

Beautiful and horrific. I love the composition. This more or less confirms what happened on LV223. Due to Scott's recent comments the the engineers didn't make the xenomorph, I assumed that the engineers harvested the black goo from the neomorph. But they broke out and killed them. Then again this poster shows non-biomech engineers. Could these be the inhabitants of Paradise? So many questions, roll on May 12th.

That looks great. They might give these painters away during opening night.

Nice!  I agree with what Chris said- it reminded me of the mural in Prometheus where LMG said "this is just another tomb". And above the main alien poking his head out does seem to look like the upper portion of the head of a full grown queen... even some of the mouths look larger like queen mouths.

Awesome image :)  Love the aesthetic.

Looks like two types of facehugger are present: the 'spider' and the squid  Look at the engineer directly below the central alien . . .

If it is a mural then that really does speak volumes if the above is the case.  Perhaps suggesting that experiments going wrong were to blame for any outbreak across the Engineer culture - not just LV223.

I'm now thinking LV223 may have been a study center to try and contain/eradicate the outbreak/xeno?

Or maybe it's just a cool image - ether way, I think it gives us some clues and teases . . . Ooooh Sir Ridders, you . . . ;)

What a great poster! I'd like to get a large glossy version of this.

If these beings are Engineers and they don't represent humans or generically humanoid forms, then it seems they were overwhelmed by the creatures. There appear to be some bits that remind of the Xenomorph biomechanical design but they don't seem to belong to an actual creature, more like random arms or legs that just blend into the design in a Giger-esque way. The creatures appear to have musculature instead of biomechanical design. Some of the mouths on the heads that appear without a body resemble the Queen.

The "Female Engineer" is nothing me than arms because the split goes up too far, and notice how it is made of stone similar to the corpses outside the temple, as for the queen crest I feel like it is in fact a queen crest but the problem is that would go against Scott's initial vision for the xenomorph, yes ridley Scott has said that he considers aliens canon but I feel like it is not in fact a queen.

All these face-hugged Engineers, shouldn't that mean a boat load of Deacons somewhere? And where are the Trilobite face-huggers?

Epic poster though!! love it

Oh, how very amazing! There is a subtle sensuality to this image I find to be most compelling! With luck, this glimpse into the upcoming film is an indication of its atmosphere! :)

All in all, I have counted eight Aliens upon the image - those which are readily identifiable, at any rate. Is that, perhaps, significant? :)
