Rain Carradine (Cailee Spaeny) looking terrified, holding a weapon in Alien: Romulus
Alien: Romulus has shaken up the typical franchise formula with a younger cast than usual, but exactly how old is Cailee Spaeny’s character Rain supposed to be in the movie? Whereas the Alien films usually revolve around space truckers or space marines , Alien: Romulus revolves around a bunch of orphaned kids working dead-end jobs at a mining colony.
2:52 Related Alien: Romulus Ending Explained Alien: Romulus' ending leaves the door open for another entry in the franchise. We break down the Alien sequel's final moments & what might come next. Rain lost her parents a long time ago, and she dreams of leaving Jackson's Star behind and jetting off to a less bleak existence. Rain is old enough that, although Andy was reprogrammed to take care of her, now she has to take care of him. Spaeny was also 25 when she shot the movie in 2023, so the character’s age lines up with her real age.
John Hurt was in his late 30s, Tom Skerritt was in his 40s, and Harry Dean Stanton was in his 50s. It made sense for the Nostromo crew to be different ages, because they’re essentially intergalactic truckers thrown together as a dysfunctional workforce. But it’s hinted that the Corbelan crew in Alien: Romulus all grew up together under the same miserable circumstances, so they all had to be in the same age range.
