In true Alien fashion, Alien: Romulus will also be rated R! The Alien sequel / Aliens prequel has been officially rated R in the US for Bloody Violent Content and Language - of course, as if the film's trailer didn't make that abundantly clear already.

Suffice to say, Alien: Romulus is intended for adult audiences.
