Noah Hawley emphasized the need for Alien: Earth to diverge from the futuristic aesthetics of Prometheus, instead opting for the retrofuturistic tone reminiscent of the original films. His discussions with Ridley Scott indicate a desire to ensure a cohesive narrative that ties into the existing Alien universe, maintaining a sense of continuity while exploring the origins and purpose of the xenomorphs, a topic that has intrigued fans since Prometheus introduced its mysteries.
Set to take place on Earth three decades prior to the events of Alien, the forthcoming series will explore the formation of Weyland-Yutani. This setting presents an opportunity for a 'big imaginative reimagining' of the existing Alien canon. Hawley hinted at the expansive narrative he intends to build over the next decade, potentially unraveling the mysteries surrounding the xenomorphs and their role within the expansive universe of the franchise.
