Earlier this year, a new chapter in the “Alien” franchise hit theaters, and now, it’s available to stream on Hulu from the comfort of your own living room.
“Alien: Romulus” comes from Uruguayan filmmaker Fede Álvarez, who has a niche in sci-fi horror. Within the “Alien” timeline, it’s set, specifically, between “Alien” (1979) and “Aliens” (1986). The film’s young cast is led by Golden Globe nominee Cailee Spaeny.
