‘Alien: Romulus’ leaves the door open for a sequel. Here’s what to know about potential future films.

David Jonsson as Andy in “Alien: Romulus.”

Earlier on in the film, all the characters reference how Andy will not be welcome on the planet, which is free from Weyland-Yutani’s control. The people on Yvaga III are so against androids that anyone who owns one is thrown in prison, which is why they originally planned to leave Andy behind.

A sequel could quite easily pick up on Yvaga III if the population is hostile to Rain and Andy. And although Rain killed the Offspring, something could’ve easily been left behind on their ship.

But whether it’s a Xenomorph or a Facehugger could be left up to the writers’ discretion. Maybe Weyland-Yutani will recover some of the Offspring’s DNA and continue the twisted experiments.

For now, Álvarez and the cast haven’t clarified whether they intend to make a sequel, but if it’s successful at the box office, it’s not hard to imagine that Disney executives will be keen for a sequel. (So far, it’s off to a solid start and is headed for a $40 million opening weekend, according to Deadline.)

Until then, however, Hulu is developing an “Alien” TV series from “Fargo” creator Noah Hawley. Titled, “Alien: Earth,” the series is set 30 years before the events of Ridley Scott’s original movie.

Little is known about the plot, but it includes “Andor” star Alex Lawther as CJ, a soldier, and Sydney Chance as Wendy, a woman with the body of an adult and the consciousness of a child. According to Deadline, “Fargo” season five star David Rysdahl is also in the cast as Kirsch, an android in charge of looking after Wendy.
