Alien: Romulus' Timeline Is Perfectly Placed To Finally Explain A 38-Year-Old Mystery
Alien: Romulus may resolve a major franchise mystery by explaining Gorman's use of the term "Xenomorph" in Aliens.
The upcoming movie could clarify that "Xenomorph" is a catch-all term for aliens, dispelling confusion among fans. While focusing on survival horror, Alien: Romulus has the opportunity to address this long-standing misunderstanding within the series. While Alien: Romulus has a plot of its own to focus on, the movie’s place in the series timeline means it could answer one major franchise mystery. 2024’s upcoming Alien: Romulus is almost guaranteed to annoy some longtime fans of the sci-fi horror franchise since the Alien movies are hardly known for their consistent lore. Both 2004’s Alien Vs Predator and 2012’s Prometheus offered conflicting, contradictory backstories for the original movie’s Weyland-Yutani Corporation, and there is no guarantee that Alien: Romulus will confirm either of these origin stories as part of the franchise’s knotty, ever-evolving canon.
