‘Alien: Earth’ Adds 11 Cast Members, Including ‘Severance,’ ‘Fargo,’ and ‘The Crown’ Alumns
Alien: Earth on FX for Hulu is adding 11 new guest stars to its cast. Richa Moorjani from Never Have I Ever, Karen Aldridge from Severance, and Enzo Cilenti from The Crown are among those joining the series.
Other newcomers include Max Rinehart (from Industry), Amir Boutrous (from Good Omens), and Victoria Masoma, plus Tom Moya (Midsomer Murders), Andy Yu (Fargo), Michael Smiley (Bad Sisters), Jamie Bisping (Mandy), and Tanapol Chuksrida (Thai Cave Rescue). What roles they’ll play is still under wraps.
These actors are joining a cast that already includes Sydney Chandler, Alex Lawther, Timothy Olyphant, Essie Davis, and several others like Babou Ceesay, David Rysdahl, and Adrian Edmondson.
The show is set two years before the events of the 1979 film Alien—in 2010. At this point, five major corporations—Prodigy, Weyland-Yutani, Lynch, Dynamic, and Threshold—are the real powers. The show’s plot kicks off when a mysterious spaceship crashes on Earth.
A group of soldiers and a young woman make a shocking discovery that brings them face-to-face with terrifying life forms. As they try to survive, they realize what they do with this new discovery could change Earth forever.
The premiere is set for this summer.
