‘Alien: Romulus’ now on digital
Posted/updated on: October 15, 2024 at 10:39 am
After a successful run in theaters -- and just in time to creep you out for Halloween -- Alien: Romulus is now available to rent or buy on digital streaming platforms.
The 20th Century Studios follow-up to Ridley Scott's 1979 classic Alien and James Cameron's beloved 1986 sequel Aliens was directed by Fede Álvarez, who directed the micro-budgeted 2016 horror hit Don't Breathe.
The logline teases, "While scavenging the deep ends of a derelict space station, a group of young space colonizers come face to face with the most terrifying life form in the universe."
The digital release comes packed with supplemental extras, including a feature on how Álvarez opted for practical effects over digital wherever possible — including a close-up look of how they brought the creepy facehugger aliens to life.
Alien: Romulus is Certified Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes with an Audience Score of 85% and made more than $349 million worldwide, the second-highest-grossing film in the Alien franchise globally.
The film comes to 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray and DVD on Dec. 3.
20th Century Studios is a division of ABC News' parent company, Disney.
