Take your first look at the full cast of Alien: Covenant

Directed by Ridley Scott, filmed in Australia and featuring a stellar international cast – including no less than five Aussies in key roles* – you can say we’re more than a little excited about the release of the latest film in the Alien saga – Alien: Covenant.

To whet our appetite, 20th Century Fox have today released a bunch of new stills from the film, including, most importantly, a shot of the whole crew on board the colony ship Covenant:

L to R: Katherine Waterston, Amy Seimetz, Tess Haubrich, Alexander England, Nathaniel Dean, Demián Bichir, James Franco, Danny McBride, Uli Latukefu, Benjamin Rigby, Callie Hernandez, Jussie Smollet, Carmen Ejogo, Billy Crudup, Michael Fassbender

For those not familiar with the film yet, here’s a look at the synopsis:

Ridley Scott returns to the universe he created, with ALIEN: COVENANT, a new chapter in his groundbreaking ALIEN franchise. The crew of the colony ship Covenant, bound for a remote planet on the far side of the galaxy, discovers what they think is an uncharted paradise, but is actually a dark, dangerous world. When they uncover a threat beyond their imagination, they must attempt a harrowing escape.
