Cailee Spaeny, Isabela Merced & the Case of "Alien: Romulus" Talk About Honoring the Series' Legacy

[@The_Isaiahnator]

I loved what Archie and Cailee said about the original Alien. The atmosphere, the performances... there's so many reasons why it has held up over the years.

[@miltontavares9506]

At least they are respectful to the original Alien...unlike the cast of Acolyte.

Fede looks like the dad or the head teacher leading a school group 🤣

Yes agreed. Fassbender was amazing I would love to see more movies with him as David

[@leemelinda7940]

I like Archie‘s acting in it so much and he deserves more love after been so underrated. It’s amazing that he can bring so much layers to a typical protagonist character. That door scenes shock me and I'm surprised how many different emotions he can convey in a short time！I hope his career skyrocket after Alien Romulus. What a talented and handsome guy！

[@anasshahid224]

Alien Romulus was absolutely fantastic, captured the vibe of the first movie perfectly, the cinematography, music, action everything was top notch. Fede Álvarez and the cast and crew did a phenomenal job, really enjoyed the movie. 👏👏👏👏👏

[@allenleigh5201]

i'm digging the passion and energy from these 'up and coming' actors

[@myaedelman]

Isabela isnt techinally “new” or “Up and coming” she's been acting she was 12 years old lol

[@Jaythesparrow]

Isabelle has no energy, she doesn’t seem grateful to be in this kind of movie

I'm looking forward to the movie and yes it's nice to see young actors taking on the Alien

@@myaedelman true she was in transformers for example, but she really hasn't been a 'star' or big name until very recently, now she's in some of the biggest projects in hollywood/tv, but yeah she's been great for a while, Day of the Soldado and Turtles All The Way Down for example

[@mremu]

I haven't looked forward to a movie this much in 20 years! I'm so happy they finally brought the Big Chap back since he never died at the end of the original!

[@mystic_maelstrom]

he'll be barely in the flick, dont get too excited.

[@nicholasnajibi3082]

Ridley Scott made him re write it multiple times and the end result is way too long. Ridley himself said it.

[@mollytonini3694]

I love Spike’s whole vibe! I cannot wait to see where his career takes him!

[@christina74788]

Great interview! Cailee and Isabela are so insightful! 👏🏻 Alien: Romulus looks fantastic, and I also can't wait to see Knives Out 3 and the second season of The Last of Us! 🍿

[@iszac87]

I was hoping someone would say Prometheus is one of their favorites, and I'm glad she did say. Prometheus is really a gem expansion of the franchise, it made a bigger universe, bigger mystery, more scary stuffs to be explored.

[@HoudsAVProduction]

I saw Alien, Alien 2 and all the Alien franchise, enjoyed all of them but this one by Fede is on another level as it goes beyond with amazing rock solid atmosphere and sound. Saw it 2 times already and wish it was 8 hours long. The Imax theater was packed and the final birth scene was so loud and disturbing that people almost fainted

[@carolmr8508]

Isabela looks so STUNNING ❤ she slayed!!

[@johnfwater2540]

Super beautiful Alien!!!!! Thank you so much for making it!!!! I watched three times at the Chinese theatre. I am crying because this new Alien is super beautiful... New Ripley...Rain... and super great Director...

[@alvvaysforever]

Glad that they’re keeping the final girl pattern. Only makes the Alien series more iconic. Caliee is an amazing actress, and I’d love to see more of her roles in the future! Highly recommend Alien Romulus!

I really, really have high hopes for this. Fede being at the helm gives me some reassurance. And Isabela's career is on a serious uptick. So happy for her.

[@GuineaPigEveryday]

Watched this movie twice in IMAX, love the cast, love the direction from Fede Alvarez and his team that made the great practical effects, fantastic production design, cool action-horror sequences, the music, the great atmosphere and props and prosthetics and whatnot, love this movie, Isabela and Cailee are SUCH stars and love seeing them have their success and acclaim the past year(s) as they deserve, talented af

[@justinrice5405]

My most anticipated movie of the year! It's looking like a true return to form. Ever since Fede said he played Alien: Isolation and wanted to make a movie like that, I was hyped.

[@seancorrigan7448]

Cailee Spaeny is too much talent and beauty to behold. She was great in Alien: Romulus.

[@MegaDeath22]

She was amazing as Priscilla and Alien is one of the best franchises of all time. Really excited to see this and see where her career goes. Aliens is my obvious number one favorite. But the origianl is iconic. I love them all honestly. Prometheus is top tier and Covenant was crazy in theaters.

[@cable7152]

The horror roots are very present

[@max1mu5dc]

Fede is a brilliant director. Knowing these actresses/actors are relatively young, Fede used practical effects and shot the movie in chronological order to draw out genuine fear and emotions from them.

[@GoBudsGo]

The general premise of the story is really unique (although some unanswered questions) and the ending/demise of the ship is fantastic. Mostly very dark interior visuals, but ironically space provided the only light.

[@louisberry4403]

Love Cailee and can't wait for this. Hope this brings The Magic back of the first 2.

"Many recent action pictures have improbably young actors cast as key roles or sidekicks, but by skewing older, Alien achieves a certain texture without even making a point of it: These are not adventurers but workers, hired by a company to return 20 million tons of ore to Earth." - Ebert, 1979
