A new “Alien” television series, based on the classic extraterrestrial horror movie franchise, will be a “story about inequality,” according to its creator Noah Hawley, even though the movie series is mostly about humans dodging the carnivorous alien from Ridley Scott’s 1979 sci-fi classic.
Disney gained the rights to the “Alien” when it merged with Fox “now 20th Century Studios — which gave them the rights” to the R-rated franchise, according to Disney news site, Inside the Magic. Disney has used the alien from “Alien” before, in at least two rides in Walt Disney World and, according to initial reports, was planning to hold on to the franchise, possibly so it could produce future feature-length films and a live-action television series.
