But in Legion they ( Lauren Shuler Donner productor X-MEN movies) said that it was not the same universe but there would be winks.
Quote"We are separating it. We are our own world."
In Noah's Alien,
the president says to THR that it is the same universe, that it is not a reboot. And the first story in the Alien saga.It IS different than Legion but it also says that Noah expands and reimagines Alien.
I think that even being in the Alien universe, Noah will have the freedom to follow his path and it may not fit well or yes, but it officially goes before Alien.
My doubt is if they mean before Alien or before Covenant.
70 years since now ( says CEO to THP) is between Prometheus and Covenant.
