Aileen Wu's movie costume from Alien: Romulus on display...
Director Fede Alvarez's Alien: Romulus is set between 1979's Alien and 1986's Aliens and sees a young crew of scavengers from a mining colony break into a derelict space station to steal some hypersleep chambers in order to travel through space to a better life on a terraformed world. In the film Aileen Wu plays 'Navarro', the pilot of the Corbelan IV hauler that flys them to the orbiting abandoned scientific spaceship. Aboard the station Navarro is attacked by an alien "facehugger" (as strikingly seen on the movie's theatrical posters) which impregnates her with a "chestburster" that leads to her violent death.

David Jonsson's Alien: Romulus movie costume on display...
In Alien: Romulus, David Jonsson plays the synthetic person 'Andy' who was found discarded and reprogrammed by the father of orphaned 'Rain Carradine', his primary directive to do what is best for his adoptive sister. Living on the dangerous mining colony of Jackson's Star which sees no daylight, he is needed by a young crew of scavengers who want to raid a seemingly abandoned spacecraft in orbit to acquire some cryostasis units, in order to sleep for nine years in space for a better life on a newly terraformed planet and escape their enforced servitude to the Weyland-Yutani Corporation. Being artificial, he can speak MU/TH/UR 6000 code to the spaceship's computer and get the crew access. Unbeknownst to them, the derelict craft is actually a research space station which contains the most dangerous life form in the universe.

Cailee Spaeny's Alien: Romulus movie costumes on display...
Hoorah, finally some exciting new film costumes and props to share with you from the new Alien: Romulus movie. In Fede Alvarez's new installment in the science fiction-horror franchise, a Weyland-Yutani space probe discovers the wreckage of the USCSS Nostromo and collects an organic meteorite object containing the xenomorph ejected into space by Sigourney Weaver's warrant office 'Ellen Ripley' in Alien. On the mining colony Jackson's Star, Cailee Spaeny's orphaned 'Rain Carradine' finds her work contract forcibly extended by at least five years, when she thought she'd earned enough hours to leave and travel to the already terraformed planet of Yvaga III.
