The xenomorph heads to our planet in the Alien: Earth teaser trailer

Alien: Earth | Official Teaser - Destination | FX

The Alien franchise normally features humans fighting the xenomorphs in space. In Alien: Earth, the extraterrestrial creatures are bringing the battle to Earth.

The official teaser trailer for Alien: Earth depicts a xenomorph frantically running in a ship hurling straight toward Earth. The xenomorph runs right into a glass window, giving fans a brief look at its large head. Judging by the tagline, “We were safer in space,” the xenomorph will unleash havoc on humanity.

Speaking of humanity, the unlucky group sent to investigate the crash-landing is a group of tactical soldiers led by Wendy, a meta-human played by Sydney Chandler. “With this new threat unlocked,” the synopsis reads, “the search crew must fight for survival, and what they choose to do with this discovery could change planet Earth as they know it.”

Alien: Earth comes one year after the success of Alien: Romulus, Fede Álvarez’s Alien movie set between the events of Alien and Aliens. Originally commissioned as a streaming-only debut, Romulus received a theatrical release in August 2024 and became a smash hit, grossing over $350 million on an $80 million budget.

Alien: Earth premieres this summer on FX on Hulu and Hulu on Disney+.

Final Destination: Bloodlines teaser trailer: Welcome back, death
A skull has a chain hanging from its nose in Final Destination Bloodlines.

After a 14-year hiatus, the Final Destination franchise returns for a new chapter, Final Destination: Bloodlines, which promises to be as deadly as ever.

Warner Bros. has released the first teaser trailer for Final Destination: Bloodlines. The two-minute clip quickly reminded people of two of the franchise's stalwarts: no one is safe, and death is inevitable.
The teaser follows the life of a tattoo artist inside his shop. After piercing a client's tongue, the tattoo artist sits down to tattoo the word "Dad" on his wrist. Final Destination is famous for its elaborate death scenes, and this teaser sets up another brutal kill. The chain from a ceiling fan breaks and attaches itself to the artist's nose ring. The chain gets wrapped in the fan and pulls him closer to the ceiling. A light breaks onto the floor and lands in disinfectant, which starts a fire. The fan falls from the ceiling and sends the man with it to the floor and into the fire.
As for the actual story, the movie's plot details are being kept under wraps. The logline from Warner reads, "Plagued by a violent recurring nightmare, college student Stefanie heads home to track down the one person who might be able to break the cycle and save her family from the grisly demise that inevitably awaits them all."
