“Gladiator” is not the only beloved work by Ridley Scott returning for a sequel. This year, the “Alien” franchise makes a comeback with “Alien: Romulus,” its seventh installment, set between the events of the first and second films.

While some fans of Scott’s universe might prefer the franchise to remain as it is, there’s considerable excitement about Federico Álvarez directing this film. Known for “Evil Dead” and “Don’t Breathe,” Alvarez is expected to bring his horror expertise to the world of the Xenomorphs.

Additionally, there’s a lot of buzz around Cailee Spaeny, star of “Priscilla,” leading the picture. The rest of the cast features various emerging talents, including Spike Fearn, who will play a character named Bjorn.
