As a seasoned gamer and horror movie enthusiast with over three decades of experience under my belt, I must say that the Alien franchise has always held a special place in my heart. From the terrifying xenomorphs to the gripping storylines, it’s a series that never fails to send chills down my spine.
The popular “Alien” series has made a comeback with the blockbuster movie titled “Alien: Romulus”. Set between the conclusion of the initial “Alien” film and the start of “Aliens”, the story revolves around a band of salvagers facing off against the malevolent xenomorphs in a struggle for survival. With the franchise experiencing renewed success, an enthusiastic animator has crafted an exhilarating anime interpretation of the horror saga that pays homage to both the “Alien” series and the visual style of 1980s anime. The animation titled “Alien: Monday” has garnered widespread acclaim and boasts viewership numbers sufficient for it to be deemed a viral hit.
It’s possible that “Alien: Covenant” could be one of the most significant installments in the horror series, but as of now, a follow-up film has not been officially announced. In a recent conversation with The Hollywood Reporter, director Fede Álvarez hinted at the possibility of a sequel, stating, “We don’t typically plan for sequels. For us, films are about telling stories. We finished ‘Alien: Covenant,’ and we began wondering, ‘What would happen if they reached Yvaga? Would it be wonderful, or would it be terrible?’ We think it might be a terrible place that they imagine to be great, so naturally, we started thinking about where the story could go next. And then, after just a few minutes, we realized, ‘That sounds like a sequel.’
Alien: Monday’s Viral Success
Below, you’ll find a viral video that has garnered over 2.5 million views on YouTube so far. This brief clip centers around a main character who experiences an unpleasant surprise as her base is being destroyed by a xenomorph. The situation forces her to take extreme measures just to stay alive.
Although there hasn’t been an officially recognized “Alien” anime yet, given that prominent series like Star Wars are delving into the anime realm, it’s possible that the Xenomorphs could follow suit someday. The mini-series “Alien: Monday” demonstrates how effectively the xenomorphs can instill fear in the anime medium, maintaining the terror from the original film.
Curious about the possibility of an official anime series for the xenomorphs someday? Keep tabs on Team Anime at ComicBook for the most current news regarding Hollywood franchises being adapted into anime.
