  • Alien: Earth has a new full-length trailer
  • It reveals there will be five dangerous lifeforms featured in the series
  • The series premieres on Hulu and Disney+ in mid-August

Alien: Earth has an official trailer and it has a shocking twist. There's not just one deadly species here, but five, when the series lands on August 12 on Hulu in the US, and August 13 internationally on Disney+.

Any good Alien fan will tell you that the Xenomorphs are bad news. We've been running from them for years whether it was the original Sigourney Weaever-led movie, or the hit horror game Alien: Isolation.

But somehow, after watching this trailer, it seems we could have much bigger threats ahead and the Xenomorph could be the least of our concerns.

In my eyes, Alien: Earth could be a real contender for a spot on our best Hulu shows list based on this shocking twist alone.

Take a look at the trailer below.

The plot of Hulu's Alien: Earth teases a dystopian future where Earth is governed by five corporations. Part of their work is creating cyborgs and synthetics, who co-exist alongside humans.

Alien: Earth picks up when one of these corporations unlocks a new technological advancement, hybrids, which are humanoid robots infused with human consciousness. Their hybrid prototype marks a new dawn in their search for immortality.
