When is ‘Alien: Earth’ Episode 6 Coming Out?

Last week’s episode of Alien: Earth took us all the way back to when it all went wrong aboard the USCSS Maginot. Now, the FX show returns to the main narrative, to explore the fallout of that Weyland-Yutani ship’s crash in Prodigy territory. As corporate overlords Boy Kavalier (Samuel Blenkin) and Yutani (Sandra Yi Sencindiver) duke it out for the alien samples, hybrid Wendy (Sydney Chandler) has been busy learning how to communicate with the Xenomorphs while her brother, Hermit (Alex Lawther), watches helplessly on. What could possibly happen on Alien: Earth next? When does Alien: Earth Episode 6 come out?

Alien: Earth is, of course, showrunner Noah Hawley‘s unique spin on the Alien franchise. Set in 2120, the show imagines what would happen if one of the Weyland-Yutani deep space research vessels from the original films brought those deadly aliens all the way back to Earth. Hawley also envisions a planet trapped in its “corporate era,” wherein five mega-companies own all of the world and beyond. Each of these industrial titans lays claim to different territories and, it seems, technological advances. Just as Weyland-Yutani is poised to bring alien life to Earth, Boy Kavalier has unlocked the ability to put human consciousness into an immortal “hybrid” body.
