ALIEN: EARTH Video Teases Mysterious Link Between New Character and Franchise Legacy — GeekTyrant
Alien: Earth is just around the corner, and fans of the Alien universe are about to dive into a terrifying new chapter that connects back to one of the biggest power players in the franchise… Weyland-Yutani. A new promo video just dropped, and it puts the spotlight on one of the series' most intriguing new characters, a corporate leader with a wild agenda that could shake up everything we thought we knew. Set years before the events of Alien , the upcoming FX series explores the early days of the corporate arms race that would shape the future of humanity. While Alien introduced Weyland-Yutani as the shadowy force pulling the strings from behind the scenes, Alien: Earth will widen the scope to show the company fighting for dominance against other hungry players like Lynch, Dynamic, Threshold, and Prodigy. Prodigy is led by the enigmatic and eccentric Boy Kavalier, played by Samuel Blenkin, and this video gives us a taste of what to expect form the character. In the teaser, Kavalier addresses the competition: 'I'd be lying if I said I wasn't aware of Weyland-Yutani. Everyone in this game is. But I don't emulate them. I don't envy them. I don't fear them. I think they're playing catch-up.' That's a bold claim in a universe where Weyland-Yutani has always played god with human lives, but Kavalier might have something to back it up. Prodigy's breakthrough is wild as they're transferring human consciousness into synthetics, essentially creating a new form of sentient life. A catastrophic crash near Prodigy City brings chaos and horror, as alien monsters are unleashed into the world. That's when we meet Wendy, played by Sydney Chandler, the first human-synthetic hybrid. She takes charge, leading other synthetics in a desperate hunt to eliminate the alien threat. But this wouldn't be an Alien story without a deadly twist — there's a Xenomorph in the mix, and it's not going down without taking a few heads with it. Kavalier's motives also remain murky. While Wendy and the others fight to survive, he seems more interested in capturing the alien than saving his creations. That obsession could spell doom for everyone involved. Alongside Blenkin and Chandler, Alien: Earth features a solid cast including Timothy Olyphant as Kirsh, Alex Lawther as CJ, Lily Newmark as Nibs, and Essie Davis as Dame Silva. The series is created by Noah Hawley, with Ridley Scott producing. Alien: Earth premieres with its first two episodes on FX and Hulu on August 12.

Nicholas Hoult On Looking "Inbred," Viral Interview
Nicholas Hoult was just 11 years old when he first found fame as Hugh Grant's young costar in the 2002 hit movie About A Boy. Since then, his career has flourished, with Nicholas also being known for his performance as Tony Stonem in the gritty British series Skins, as well as a whole bunch of popular movies like Warm Bodies and The Menu. Nick has also joined some huge franchises, including Mad Max and X-Men. Most recently, he has garnered huge acclaim for his performance as villain Lex Luthor in the latest Superman movie. And throughout his career, the star has been no stranger to fans thirsting over him — but a recently resurfaced 2023 interview suggests that he hasn't let this attention go to his head... In fact, Nick had a straight-up bizarre response to a radio host asking him about his good looks, and how left-field his answer was has led to the actor going pretty viral on X. In an interview with Hits radio, Nick was asked: 'How does it feel, in life, being such a beautiful person?'The star was clearly taken aback by this question and blushed as he laughed and thanked the interviewer for the compliment. He then said: 'That's weird. I read something recently, I did a show called The Great, I play the emperor of Russia in that, and I saw a comment of someone on Twitter that said: 'He looks like just the right amount of inbred to be a royal.'' 'And so I don't think I'm conventionally very handsome or anything,' Nick went on. 'I don't have the perks of being handsome because I look more inbred.' Needless to say, people can't get enough of this response, with one X user sharing a video of the interview alongside the caption: 'this is how I take compliments btw.' The tweet has already been seen over a million times, and has racked up thousands of likes, replies, and reply asked: 'Nicholas Hoult is one of my very few male celebrity crushes and he thinks he looks inbred?!''Wdym Nicholas Hoult doesn't think he is handsome????????' somebody else joked: 'I've been saying he's hot since he was in skins what more does he need.'While one more reasoned: 'He doesn't look inbred he's just English.'
