Aliens cast members Ricco Ross and Carrie Henn had signed on to star in Alien Identity. The filmmakers was going to do a kickstarter campaign in August 2015 but in July 2015, the film was issued cease and desist order by 20th Century Fox. The Alien Identity team commented that “they [Fox] were worried our storyline would confuse the fans for Alien 5.” Instead, they’ll be doing a completely independent project called Triborn.
ALIEN IDENTITY takes place 14 years after the events of Jim Cameron’s 1986 blockbuster, Aliens. It continues the story of Newt, the little girl we all loved, but despised to see perish in vain. They decided to bring back Newt, played by Elle Viane Sonnet as a young woman with an undeniably haunting past and an uncertain future.
