A new teaser reel for Noah Hawley's Alien: Earth TV series was screened at the Oscars and the short clip contains a number of new cutscenes - one in particular unleashing (one of) the series' Xenomorph. Oddly however, there is a very distinct soundbite at the beginning of the trailer which fans will notice as the Predator's clicking - we believe this to be one of the sound bites that were used in Alien vs. Predator. Why it was included in the Alien: Earth teaser? We're uncertain... Check it out:
In addition to the new Alien: Earth footage, we have an updated plot synopsis which offers further insight to the show's storyline:
When a mysterious space vessel crash-lands on Earth, a young woman (Sydney Chandler) and a ragtag group of tactical soldiers make a fateful discovery that puts them face-to-face with the planet’s greatest threat in FX’s highly anticipated TV series Alien: Earth from creator Noah Hawley.
Alien: Earth is set in 2120 when five corporations – Prodigy, Weyland-Yutani, Lynch, Dynamic and Threshold – wield the power of nations, and proprietary advancements in technology provide the promise of a new tomorrow.
