Set on Earth, Alien: Earth promises to deliver both suspense and thrilling action with an impressive international cast, including Babou Ceesay, Jonathan Ajayi, Erana James, Lily Newmark, Diêm Camille, Timothy Olyphant, and Sandra Yi Sencindiver. 

Sharing his excitement, Adarsh Gourav said, "Shooting Aliens: Earth was an unreal experience. To be part of this franchise and this genre. I’m over the moon to be part of the Alien universe. Having grown up on Ridley Scott’s Alien films which had a key influence on me – the tension, the world-building, the sense of awe and the world they created. To now be part of this iconic franchise is surreal."
