Things are about to get even weirder and wilder in Alien: Earth Season 2, as production on the FX series gets underway in London: Tracey Ullman has joined the cast of the series, alongside Sam Spruell and Jerome Flynn.
They join previously announced guest-star Peter Dinklage. And as FX notes, this reunites Spruell with showrunner Noah Hawley, who previously cast the actor on Fargo. Though there’s no debut date for Alien: Earth Season 2 as of yet, it will premiere on FX and Hulu in the US, and Disney+ internationally.
These new cast-members will star alongside [deep breath] Sydney Chandler and an expansive international cast, including Alex Lawther, Timothy Olyphant, Essie Davis, Babou Ceesay, Samuel Blenkin, Adarsh Gourav, Jonathan Ajayi, Erana James, Lily Newmark, Adrian Edmondson, David Rysdahl, Moe Bar-El, Sandra Yi Sencindiver and more.
Here’s the synopsis for Alien: Earth Season 1, and as for what roles Ullman, Spruell, and Flynn will play? TBA (To Be Aliens).
When the mysterious deep space research vessel USCSS Maginot crash-lands on Earth, “Wendy” (Sydney Chandler) and a ragtag group of tactical soldiers make a fateful discovery that puts them face-to-face with the planet’s greatest threat in FX’s “Alien: Earth.”
In the year 2120, the Earth is governed by five corporations: Prodigy, Weyland-Yutani, Lynch, Dynamic and Threshold. In this Corporate Era, cyborgs (humans with both biological and artificial parts) and synthetics (humanoid robots with artificial intelligence) exist alongside humans. But the game is changed when the wunderkind Founder and CEO of Prodigy Corporation unlocks a new technological advancement: hybrids (humanoid robots infused with human consciousness). The first hybrid prototype named “Wendy” marks a new dawn in the race for immortality. After Weyland-Yutani’s spaceship collides into Prodigy City, “Wendy” and the other hybrids encounter mysterious life forms more terrifying than anyone could have ever imagined.
