Ridley Scott's 1979 masterpiece starring Sigourney Weaver is back on April 26.
Forty-five years after its release, it’s time to have your chest burst all over again. Ridley Scott ’s 1979 masterpiece, Alien , is coming back to theaters later this month, to both celebrate the film’s anniversary and to prep audiences for its latest follow-up, Alien : Romulus . The screenings are happening on—when else?— Alien Day, April 26, and tickets are on sale now wherever tickets are sold. Here’s a TV spot to celebrate the occasion, and remind you of the film’s brilliance.
This original Alien also acts as a table-setter for Alien: Romulus, which opens August 16. Set after the events of Alien, but before the events of Aliens, it seems to be telling a similar story of a similar ship on a similar mission. Several new clips played last week at CinemaCon and teased a whole other level of violence and fear for the franchise.
