FX chief John Landgraf also said: “FX is moving quickly to bring audiences the first television series based on one of the greatest science- fiction horror classics ever made: ‘Alien.’ ‘Alien’ will be helmed by ‘Fargo’ and ‘Legion’s’ Noah Hawley stepping into the creator/executive producer chair, and FX is in advanced negotiations with Academy Award winner, Sir Ridley Scott, director of the first ‘Alien’ film and the sequel, ‘Alien: Covenant,’ to join the project as an Executive Producer. Set not too far into our future, it’s the first ‘Alien’ story set on Earth, and by blending both the timeless horror of the first ‘Alien’ film with the non-stop action of the second, it’s going to be a scary thrill ride that will blow people back in their seats.”
Additionally, we hear Ridley Scott will serve as an executive producer. There is no word yet on if Sigourney Weaver’s Ripley or any of the other characters from the saga will also be in the series. But we’ll keep you updated as we hear more.
