Alien: Earth Season 2 Begins Filming in London as Three Major Actors Join Cast

The move signals creator Noah Hawley and FX are expanding Season 1’s cliffhanger into a larger, effects‑heavy chapter with a long production and post schedule.

Overview

  • FX confirmed principal photography for Alien: Earth Season 2 began July 9 and the shoot is based at Pinewood Studios in London.
  • Tracey Ullman, Sam Spruell and Jerome Flynn were added to the cast and will join previously announced Peter Dinklage alongside many returning Season 1 actors.
  • Producers and outlets say details about the characters the new actors will play and the season’s plot remain deliberately undisclosed.
  • The series continues under creator Noah Hawley with Ridley Scott among the executive producers and has appointed production designer Neil Lamont, linking the show to the original Alien films’ production legacy at Pinewood.
  • Industry reporting projects a lengthy production and post timeline that makes a premiere unlikely before late 2027, though no official release date has been announced and that timing remains unconfirmed.
