The 'Fargo' creator returns to FX with a haunting take on the classic science fiction franchise, with brand new creatures along for the ride.

Marking the last movie starring Sigourney Weaver as the franchise's main lead Ripley, "Alien: Resurrection" is a disappointing attempt to expand the franchise. You can't ignore the star's disinterest in coming back to play a cloned version of her character or Winona Ryder looking so out of place as the new addition.

Alien: Earth is also uncharted territory for the franchise, bringing the Xenomorphs to home turf for the first time (the end of Resurrection doesn’t count). So, with the show kicking off on Hulu and Disney Plus, this is what you need to know about the timeline.
