Earth’ Is Respectfully Reimagining the Franchise

Foreign: Location creator Noah Hawley knows The tables are harvested against him. He knows Foreigner franchishan It’s hard to crack And the idea of bringing it on television can be naughty from certain fans. But Hawley is also in his work. Has been converted somehow Fargo To a television show worthy of an incredible movie. Did Legion One of the best comic books in the last memory. And he knows that he will never be able to reset or retrieve the terror you look Ridley Scott originalor the excitement created The continuation of James Camero. Instead, he understood a way to inspire these things, but also made himself. Hope this will create something 100% known ForeignerHowever, it will stop itself as a way to completely convert the franchise on the head.

Starting from August 12 Foreign: Location Talks a story built three years ago first movie events. But while in this space, this happens – you guessed that it was on earth. There, a spaceship in charge To obtain deadly aliens from the galaxy When something is finally wrong, finally going home and crashes. To explore the accident, the Hybrids-synthetic group of children – sent to explore with the consciousness of children. What they find is not just an iconic xenomorph, but Several other types.

A few weeks back, IO9 was among a group journalist who could watch the pilot episode Foreign: Location (It was awesome) and with Hawley, as well as the manufacturer David Zucker, talk about everything Alien: place. Here are points.

Foreign: Location Will not play the hits

Foreign: Location I could not exist without Xenomorphic, but Hawley, I hope he knew that he had to add new creatures to seize what he did Foreigner so special. “One of the things you can never multiply in an audience in a Foreigner The film is the feeling that this creature is the first time in the first film, “Hawley said. This is just ineffective. You know that this is an egg, hugs a face, a chest and all. Thus, the idea of opinion for other creatures. I want this feeling this feeling is integral Foreigner Experience. But I can’t do it with these creatures. So let’s introduce new creatures how they are multiplied and what they do not know. So, I feel this week a week, ‘he said.

People are more terrible than foreigners

Another intergral part Foreigner The franchise is, yes, aliens are cruel killers. But people trying to seize them are often worse. Therefore Foreign: Location It will provide an equally important story in the technological competition, which indicates the personality by hybrid characters.

“One of the interesting features of the films, especially in the film Jim Cameron, especially Sigourney [Weaver] Paul Reiser said, ‘I do not know which species are worse. At least they do not fuck each other with one percent. ‘Right? Thus, this opinion about mankind and the terrible things we do in each other, not only the horror of the bodily horror or creature, but the human beings of the people who do what people do is. And the question is that you take a girl and put him on this synthetic body, going to choose a man or the other? So, ‘Well, why are you why the person is to do each other, why are you a person?’ But there is such a beauty to human practice, etc. This is the tension, it also feels like me, which is living and raises who is dead. “

All feels …

Hawley’s story is built in the world ForeignerYou will recognize the name and companies, but it was not the most important thing for him. “I said before, but if I had the ability to rediscover the classic movies, he felt the original, and for what a new story is saying,” he said.

… Both look.

The new story was to visually adapt to the world Foreigner. “I was very warmed by the wisdom of technology,” said Hawley, which we received retrofuturism of Franchise. ” “This is a visual definition for me. There are three classic Sci-Fi brands. There are Star Wars, Star Trek, and Foreigner. None of them look like another. You would never blend one for the other. And so if we want to do Foreignersomething needs to be drops. Something should be rusty. You must have this kind of aesthetics. And then it was difficulty, even we have not even focused on Weyland-Yutani Corporation and we are in place. As you will be aesthetic point of view, you are sure that it feels like this Foreigner If the audience is not in a ship, it is not simply not going to look. So it was a long, long process. “

Aliens will be seen on earth

Yes, there are other creatures. No will not be directed to Xenomorph’s life cycle. However, the chenos are there, in a way you have never seen the show and before. “We never see these creatures inside the ecosystem, don’t have the announcement?” Hawley said. “How do they always interest this idea to communicate with other creatures, however, any of these creatures, any other, wrongs, wrong?

“I think that the idea of seeing these creatures in a scene, a place view, is very terrible while getting it at the moment,” he said. “Really, in that time, a gift such as a gift after six films, to do something new, to do something.”

There will be new creatures Foreigner-in -Hway

Humley knows it will be difficult if the original is not possible to exceed HR Giger design Foreigner. But he knows that these new creatures are sure to stand against them. Therefore, there are many cares and are carried in their designs. “I’ll make it until I tell me the design, I said I couldn’t do it anymore,” he said. “Each element is going to the sound design from the skin tissue, all goes to the part of ‘to enter your nightmares’.

Foreign: Location attached significantly Foreigner mythology

Thus, yes, this is a new story with new topics and prospects, but some entertainment is in line with the original movies. This show is not on a spaceship or alien planet. It is something that original films are almost completely prevented, this is on earth. “When the first time comes to the earth,” Hawley said. “I mean I have a little on earth PrometheusBut who is the policy that manages the places, what is politics, what it works throughout the galaxy, and therefore it was a gift to get this great franchise with great mythology. “

“So, ‘Well, well, what do we know about the next hundred years?” Hawley continued. “It’s going to get hot. How to sink. I do not bet on capitalism, so I think corporations are this power to be aggregated. Foreigner It’s a corporation called Weyland-Yutani. And for me, I just think that the Weyland-Uhutani story is really interesting, but I like the idea that the idea is still a competition. And I also thought about the moment on the face of the earth. Edison and Tesla and Westinghouse thought this moment in the 20th century where you are and are not sure who will manage electricity. Therefore, I thought that such cyber and the competition between the EU and Transhumanism and you know, do you know who is Xerox? And it was interesting to explore it. “

The graphics of the films are important

Along with the opportunity to explore what happened on earth, Hawley liked that the movies had a very open place to add to the story. “If you remember the film, they just send it to this planet.” “I mean someone knows about these creatures, really knows that they knew enough to send them there, but the information about these creatures [is a mystery]. Now, of course, [the crew of the Nostromo] He has been in Cryosleep, how many decades or years or do not know what. Thus, something interesting related to the lack of mythology is that these people who find these first eggs have contacted those who know who are. So there is a gray area where we can play and still try to create something as big as possible to justify the title when it is still safe for the rest of the Canon. “

This will contact this new Alien or prey Movies?

“I had some conversations [the filmmakers]”Hawley acknowledged.”[But]You know, this is not the moment of Kevin Feige Marvel universe. I do not say that we should not associate or think of a big picture in success. Show [just] It should be a shot before you really can make these conversations. “

Crossovers from past movies are also possible

He thought about the potential links between shows and movies. “I did not appreciate it,” he said. Boskswain. And what does he think it happened before happening in three years or 60 years ago? Thus, these are all the active questions we have discussed. “

Have Foreign: Location Limited series?

“Well, this is not for me,” Hawley said. But in the mind, there are a recurring number that can continue for more chapters. “We have created it as a reproducable number, and I have great plans and ambitions for it.”

Why was the right time now Foreign: Location?

To do this, we will turn it into the creative officer David Zucker for Scott Free, Ridley Scott. “We approached all the candlesticks, repeatedly [about making Alien shows] We did not have interest in our name, “Zucker said. And obviously, I do not think that even thinking that this kind of equality I think this kind of [as] Such a modern period of felier TV. But I think John was not available before [Landgraf, chairman of FX] Noah’s conversation had this kind of vision, such originality. Ridley was really, I think it is pronounced by burning franchise. And it was excited to expand, but it really demanded someone who speaks of essence, and the audience find a way for a completely different experience. And it was something we had ever encountered before and could not imagine that this opportunity would be available. So the planets fit as they say. “

Planets will be aligned later in August 12 Foreign: Location Debuts in FX. Check back soon.
