Sigourney Weaver weighs on the last entry to Stranger Franchise, which she helped to start with the film led by Ridley Scott 1979.
Alien: earth was created last month, and it already has a lot of praise, including Ripley herself.
During a recent interview with TIFF while promoting DustWeaver gave him the point of view of the FX series in the not too distant future.
“What I admire about this is that it is not centered on a stranger. It is the world in which we will live in 100 years,” she said Collider. “I think the scope is so much greater than Stranger project. Fascinating. Much more about our world, which will happen, what will be important, the role of greed. »»
She continued: “It has exploded some of the themes that have always been part of the Alien series, and I think it’s beautifully sunk and beautifully done. I can’t believe it is television, frankly.”
Alien: earth Takes up in the year 2120, when the land is governed by five companies: Prodigy, Weyland-Yutani, Lynch, Dynamic and Seuil. In this business era, cyborgs (humans with organic and artificial parts) and synthetic (humanoid robots with artificial intelligence) exist alongside humans.
But the game is modified when the founder and CEO of Wunderkind by Prodigy Corporation unlocks a new technological progression: hybrids (humanoid robots imbued with human conscience). The first hybrid prototype called “Wendy” (Sydney Chandler) marks a new dawn in the immortality race. After the Weyland-Yutani spacecraft runs up to Prodigy City, “Wendy” and other hybrids meet more terrifying mysterious forms of life than anyone could have imagined.
Alien: earth was created by Noah Hawley and features Sydney Chandler, Alex Lawther, Essie Davis, Samuel Blenkin, Babou Cesesay, Adarsh Gourav, Erana James, Lily Newmark, Jonathan Ajayi, David Rysdahl, Diêm Camille, Moe Bar-El, Adrian Edmondson and Timothy Olyphant.
