Even Disney & FOX deal putting limbo many projects into the land of limbo such as the Alien.
So it is a little bit of a shock that a new report at Omega Underground indicates that the franchise may be on its way back, and this time via an arena it isn’t known for – television. The site says that following on from rumblings over the years of a TV series based on the Alien franchise, FOX may be actually ready to announce the project soon – possibly in anticipation of the franchise’s 40th Anniversary next year.
They add that any potential series would not focus on the iconic Xenomorph creatures but would merely be ‘set within that world’. The franchise had been mostly dormant for years until Scott’s 2012 film Prometheus and 2017’s Alien Covenant brought the franchise back into the public eye.
