Alien: Romulus Featurettes Show More Of Scorched Xenomorph

Posted 210 Comments

Two behind-the-scenes features have surfaced containing lots of b-roll footage from Alien: Romulus. There are plenty of spoilers in both showing key scenes we’ve either not seen or only seen glimpses of in the trailers.

The first featurette is six and a half minutes long and contains b-roll footage of lots of scenes with no narration or interviews. There are a few scenes in there showing the crew controlling the mechanical Facehuggers.

The other feature is over 12 minutes long and is more structured. Unlike the other feature, this contains interviews with the cast and crew. Interviews include Cailee Spaeny, Isabela Merced, David Jonsson, production designer Naaman Marshall, and director Fede Alvarez. Ridley Scott also says a few words.

This feature shows a lot more behind-the-scenes footage of the main Xenomorph, Scorched.

Thanks to Darkoo and The Cruentus for the news.

    The first concept art of The Offspring.

    Honestly, the long hair would have been a pretty cool design trait.


    Also, the storyboard for Bjorn's death scene    https://www.instagram.com/p/C_ZczOyRJ4b/

    Looks like a ghost/demon from J-horror movies🙈

    It reminded me of the monster in evil within 2 with the big saw arm near the start of the game.

    Goddamn, we lost another Eggmorphing scene

    Not quite. This is just showing that the eggmorphing was a reference point for visualizing the cocoon.
    I sort of was getting the Realization, that I was wrong. Oops

    There's probably some on Art station

    The cocoon is a really cool concept. Very Giger-esque in its sexualized imagery.

    Yeah that undermines Ash's role as something that blends in as human. If it was something of a common model, it would presumably be noticed.

    Though its possible the model was only common for W-Y's company usage and so did not get released publically.

    Anywhere I can read about it? Other photos of him show him with a straight back (albeit he has clothes on so it's slightly ambiguous) and his Wikipedia entry says doctors couldn't find any abnormal cause for his height.

    Quote from: Reichu on Aug 31, 2024, 05:29:24 AMBy the way, does anyone have any insight as to how the Offspring's "scoliosis" was achieved? I would imagine Robert had to stay in that makeup for long periods of time, and in the BTS footage his torso looks twisted in the same way we see it in the finished film. As far as I know, he doesn't have such a spinal condition already, and being forced into that pose for long periods by a brace or something under the prosthetics feels... unrealistic. I'm trying to ascribe it to some sort of make-up trickery but major anatomical landmarks like clavicles and iliac crests are still plainly visible. Help!  :laugh:

    Oh crap, I'm loving these. The way the Alien is depicted as being folded up inside is so cool. Loving the translucency in some of the concepts, too.

    The version that's influenced by the cut eggmorphing scene is also pretty interesting.

    I love how Cailee is just standing there, while there is that nightmare fuel practicall effet next to her.

    Also, props to Robert, since i'm sure it can't be easy being that tall, but he really had a solid creature perfomance.
