August 12 will mark a major moment in the Alien franchise, as Alien: Earth brings the franchise to humanity's home and to the realm of television.

Alien: Earth is the latest entry into the long running franchise that all at once pays homage to its source material while breaking some entirely new ground with a thought experiment worthy of the best kind of proper science fiction. It’s an evolution, it’s slick and scary just like every good little Xenomorph should be.
