Sweet pics! Be wary of nonsense considering tomorrow's date...

Someone asked if there was an insider or something... I have it on good authority that part of the set is very near Milford Sound airport. As such this would mean it would be viewable with a decent lens from the main tourist part of the area.

Newest info:

Noomi Rapace will appear at the end of Covenant!!!
Benjamin Rigby will have an important scene with her!

We shall see ultimate creature which is in fact "true" God...!

Source or else this is an April Fool's joke.

As I understand it, it's not that hidden. If you're local to it we'd appreciate any info or other pictures you maybe able to snap.

As today is a special day I can confirm that I will indeed be playing Janek's white twin brother, Jenak, in the Prometheus sequel.

I am prepared to sign things.

Exclusive interview with Alien: Covenant actor inbound.  :laugh:


Possible long ranged shot at the same structure (left hand side of the picture)? They look similarly shaped but too far distance to be really sure.

Have you noticed that the ship is named P-01?
As the RT-01 rover, it may be just one of many vehicles of the expedition!

<p>We have our first on location pictures of Alien: Covenant!

I understand you will be working alongside Danny Webb?

Lucky bastard!

Here's another potential.

Anybody know this exact location?  Perhaps a Google satellite image is in order...

Corporal Hicks

Are they updated regularly? Otherwise that wouldn't really help.

Simple, go to Google Maps. Enter Milford Sound Airport in the search box, click on satellite imagery and viola!
