Collider Interviews | Alien: Romulus Interview: Director Fede Álvarez's Promises Most of Cast Will Have Horrible Endings @ColliderInterviews | Uploaded August 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
We're less than a week away from Fede Álvarez's sequel, Alien: Romulus. When the filmmaker first completed his director's cut, it notoriously received high praise from franchise creator Ridley Scott, and has since piqued fan interest with a great looking trailer introducing the doomed crew. While at San Diego Comi-Con, Álvarez sat down with Collider's Steve Weintraub for an in-depth, spoiler-free conversation about what we can expect from his take on the Alien universe.
Having helmed horrors like the bloody Evil Dead (2013) and the silent killer Don't Breathe, we knew from the moment he was announced that Romulus would be a carnage fest. But just how much destruction is he putting Cailee Spaeny, Isabela Merced, and the rest of the cast through? Well, he isn't shying away from it. He tells Collider's Steve Weintraub, "Probably some of them—a lot of them—will find terrible endings," and this sequel is going to "show a few times what the Xenomorph does to people when it actually gets to you and you keep rolling, and you keep showing it."
If Alien: Romulus is high on your must-watch list this year, you don't want to miss out on the full interview. Álvarez talks kills, orchestrating the Chestburster scene, filming in IMAX, honoring and taking influence from Alien and Aliens, and working with the original effects team from Aliens to bring Xenomorphs back to life with spectacular practical effects work. They dig into so much more of what to expect as far as tone and story structure, as well.
