‘Alien: Romulus’ Takes Place 20 Years After the Events of the Original ‘Alien’; Here’s the Timeline Breakdown

We’ve been learning bits and pieces of information about Alien: Romulus in the wake of the teaser trailer debuting yesterday, with director Fede Alvarez (Evil Dead, Don’t Breathe) hitting the interview circuit to further preview what’s coming. For starters, the brand new movie isn’t messing with the franchise’s timeline, keeping all previous movies within the canon!

We know that Alien: Romulus takes place between the events of Ridley Scott’s original classic Alien and James Cameron’s Aliens, but where precisely on the timeline does it fall?

Alvarez tells Games Radar, “It takes place 20 years after the first film.”

“Technology in the world of Alien can change vastly, but I think it’s not dependent on time,” he adds. “It’s dependent on place. Where you are. So the characters of this movie and the world are very blue-collar. The technology is still very low-tech and analog. And, look, I’m a kid from the ‘80s. Any monitor with some VHS tracking issues puts a lot of joy in my heart.”

Alvarez notes in the same chat that Alien: Romulus takes place “decades before Aliens,” which was set in 2179. The original Alien was set in 2122, which means the events of Alien: Romulus are taking place in 2142. Indeed, as Alvarez notes, decades before Cameron’s Aliens.

The timeline breakdown looks something like this…

  • Alien – 2122
  • Alien: Romulus – 2142
  • Aliens – 2179

If you missed it, watch the teaser trailer for Romulus right here.

Alien: Romulus will be released only in theaters on August 16, 2024.

In the new movie, “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.”
