We’ve seen a lot of Alien: Romulus news this week regarding the cast of the upcoming film from Fede Alvarez! And Variety is now reporting that the film will be going in front of cameras towards the end of next week on March 9th. Earlier reports had filming starting in February, but that appears to not be the case.
Variety’s article also includes the first official synopsis released for Fede Alvarez’s Alien: Romulus, but don’t expect any specific details! And while we’re all calling the film Alien: Romulus following some earlier leaks, Variety did note that the film’s title had yet to be officially announced.
While the premise for the yet-to-be-titled movie has been kept under wraps, the studio did reveal that the film will follow “a group of young people on a distant world, who find themselves in a confrontation with the most terrifying life form in the universe.”
The production is taking place in Budapest, where some shooting is said to be taking place at Origo Studios in Budapest, where several notable recent sci-fi films like Blade Runner 2049, and Dune (2021) and The Martian have also been filmed.

Yes.
Boy, they sure do look young.
Do you mean the photo with Spaeny, Renaux and Jonsson?
A heist movie approach does sound implied, even if it is reaching. I think young hoodlums would at least make sense if this is the plot.
However, that guy's audition was shit.
Alien: Remus
If not at least some concept art or early production stills, maybe just a video of Alvarez saying something about it?
If the press release announcing the additional cast members from last week is accurate, they've been going since March 9th.
such as ferris slipping twice on the same pool of blood.
In extreme stressful situations, things like this can happen.
But that's just typical for the current internet audience. The main thing is to gossip about it and talk bad about everything.
It is also much easier to criticize than to give praise.
for me there were only 2 completely stupid situations in covenant:
1. a scientist sticks his nose straight into an unknown root and 2. oram literally lets the obviously evil david lead him to the stake.
I still like the film and find a lot more positives than bad.

Are we even sure if the events of the movie are taking place in a spaceship or somewhere bleak like lv-426 and Fiorina F161? These options mentioned are both fine but if it's going to be earth like environment then I can only laugh.
I can try to look past everyone looking like a tiktok star if the environment and the creatures are done proper.
While it didn't come across as well in the movie itself, the last really good creature design was in Alien 3.
As much as I like Tom and Alec, the aliens in the other films were too bulky for me and the teeth were sometimes as big as horses' teeth. Ultimately, that is always the director's decision.
Covenant was better again, even if the biomechanics were missing. (this should definitely be added in another movie originally because Scott once said that the development of the creature in Covenant wasn't quite finished yet.)
Maybe David would have mated with the alien
or he might have jumped into a cauldron of black goo along with his creations, triggering the biomechanical mix...
*not the actual Nostromo.
Sounds pretty good.
I found them alittle too chest pumping and in-your-face. Hopefully they're alittle more calculated and cold, which would be a slightly interesting change from years of appearances from them in other various mediums (novels, games, comics).
Also, please, please mix up their combat gear. Please, give them a whole new modern look. Again, their appearance is old-hat. Move on from Aliens for the love of god. lol.
Could it be terrible? Sure. Am I going to wait for actual narrative details, or see some visuals (it is a visual medium after all) before I start to form an actual opinion. Definitely am.
For me, I'm glad so see some more Alien content. One hardcore line I draw is no dumb person logic making decisions like in the last two films please! I still get irrationally irritated about removing helmets in an unmarked world. Everyone deserved to eat the dirt for being so f**kin dumb.
And maybe the appearance of Colonial Marines again I hope? They are long overdue for a theatrical appearance after what, nearly 40 years? Where are my Ultimate Badasses at? Donde esta mis tough hombres at?
Well we already know Weta is doing the series, and they're the only one I'm liable to whinge about, so I'll probably be pleasantly surprised with any other developments.
Is it Filmefex studio?
This is something I'm certain on.
As a lifelong fan, some upcoming news should make a lot of people happy. But then, with the anger about everything these days, you can't make everyone happy. So who knows.
It's so hard not being able to share or show anything. The news can't come out fast enough.
