“That is truly chilling to think of it moving here among us, and so I can’t tell you under what circumstances you’ll see that, but you’ll see it — and you’re going to lock your door that night,” the series EP told Rosy Cordero tonight on the Emmys red carpet.

“What was really fun for me was to really engage with the creature, bring some of my own thoughts to the design while not touching the silhouette, because that’s sacrosanct,” he continued.

“But some of the elements as we know, whatever the host is, informs what the final creature is,” said Hawley, “I just wanted to play around a little bit to make it as scary as it should be.”

FX recently dropped a teaser for the series showing an angry and feral Xenomorph with dark sharp teeth and lips dripping with drool. In Alien: Earth, which hits Hulu in 2025, when a mysterious space vessel crash-lands on Earth, a young woman (Sydney Chandler) and a ragtag group of tactical soldiers make a fateful discovery that puts them face-to-face with the planet’s greatest threat.

Recently, 20th Century Studios/Disney’s Alien: Romulus flew past the $100M mark at the domestic box office this past weekend during its 5th frame. That movie is set between the first Alien movie and James Cameron’s Aliens. Hawley’s series is set roughly 70 years before the 1979 movie.

The fifth season of Fargo is up for 15 Primetime noms this season. The show has already won six Emmys.
