On Disney+ in August 2025, will Australian viewers hear an entire planet scream? “Alien: Earth” premieres on the streaming platform, bringing the sci-fi franchise that dates back to Ridley Scott‘s 1979 great to the small screen.
Sydney Chandler, Timothy Olyphant, Alex Lawther, Samuel Blenkin, Essie Davis and Adarsh Gourav are among the stars of the series, one of several with big-name ties that are joining the streamer. “Eyes of Wakanda” is an animated anthology set in the fictional Marvel Cinematic Universe country first seen in “Black Panther,” while “Welcome to Wrexham” gains a spinoff via “Necaxa,” after Rob Mac and Ryan Reynolds joined Eva Longoria in owning a stake in Mexican football’s Club Necaxa.
