PROJECT DETAILS:
Fede Alvarez had a recent interview where he revealed that the script is done, but he won't be directing this time 'round. Here's what he said: "We just finished the script, actually, for a sequel for Romulus. But I'm gonna pass the torch on this one as director. I'm going to produce it, with Ridley Scott, we're gonna produce it together and we're right now trying to find a new filmmaker to come in." Adding... "I think that's usually what has happened, except for Ridley, filmmakers come, you make one and you pass the baton to the next one. But we wrote the story because we really love what we started with Romulus and we want to continue the story. We love the story and now we just want to find a director that really wants to go for the jugular." (9/5/25)

Fede Alvarez reportedly briefly revealed via a podcast that pre-production is underway, with filming aimed to begin sometime this October. Not much else has been revealed. (6/9/25)

This project is merely in talks right now, as the studio is working on sequel ideas with previous writer/director Fede Alvarez, but nothing is official at the moment. 20th Century Fox exec Steve Asbell had this to say about it: "We’re working on a sequel idea now. We haven’t quite closed our deal with Fede [Alvarez], but we are going to, and he has an idea that we’re working on." Adding... "The two survivors, Rain and Andy, played by Cailee Spaeny and David Jonsson, were real highlights of the film. And so I always think of it like, 'Wow, where do people want to see them go next?' We know there’s going to be aliens. We know there’s going to be great horror set pieces. But I fell in love with both of them and I want to see what their story is." (10/25/2024)

This is a proposed sequel to 2024's Alien: Romulus.
