Neomorphs and Xenomorphs unleashed in new Alien: Covenant trailer!

Neomorphs and Xenomorphs unleashed in new Alien: Covenant trailer!

The official second, full-length trailer for Alien: Covenant was prematurely released earlier tonight by 20th Century Fox but was quickly removed. However after enough people managed to download the trailer and share it throughout various outlets, Fox decided to re-publish the trailer online for everyone to enjoy.

The new trailer clocks in at over 2:30 minutes and packs a ton of new footage; our first real look at the film's new XenomorphNeomorphs attacking the Covenant crew, as well as many new scenes of the Engineer city ruins and David. The trailer also features the Prometheus siren near the end - a nice callback. You can now watch the official trailer here:

Check back soon for our in-depth analysis and a plethora of new HD screenshots!

The Alien: Romulus sequel is currently in development and cameras are set to roll by October, 2025! Be sure to bookmark the Alien: Romulus 2 Info Page for an up-to-date account of all available information, production updates and important details!

In addition to the upcoming Alien: Romulus sequel, we have the Alien: Earth TV series from Noah Hawley now streaming and a rumoured Alien vs. Predator reboot in the works as well!

This was so intense! Inspite of the new aliens, I am most intrigued by all the dead bodies in the temple scenes...They can't all be Engineers, can they...Hard to imagine what could wipe so many big, strong, strapping, muscular, sweaty hunks (Sorry, had to catch myself...) like that...

It seems Walter is also caught up on the action to which appears is a neomorph attack.

 

Also what appears to be David firing off a flare. When the neo attacks.

The result is nasty, as the victim's head is severely mutilated:

Wow, the trailer seems to back up this damn troll video from December. The Neomorph similarity is uncanny!

This is choice. This should tie things in nicely. Hoping the CGI gets cleaned up a bit. This makes me warm and fuzzy like the summer of 2012. Loved elements of Prometheus with dashes of Alien. This might just be the prequel we've wanted.

I've got a bunch of screenshots ready for upload - along with a few articles prepped. Will be sharing them later tonight. Thanks to everyone who shared the trailer once it was up! Apologies for removing the other posts, I had this announcement prepared already but had to step out after speaking with Fox. Was not expecting them to release it early.

Very pleased to see the Neos look very much like the prop head. It's time for some #Belugamorphs people!!

The Xeno in the trailer is definitely a protomorph. I've spent enough time looking at the designs. His shoulders are way to spaced out, along with its behavior seems to indicate that it is quadripedal. That lines up with the statement that the protomorph looks similar to the runner alien in alien 3. Also, if the neomorphs in the trailer are full sized at that point, they are small than a full grown human, meaning a protomorph at around 8-9 feet could easily kill several of them.

It's ok Chris I think people including myself get so carried away in the excitement with the new stuff that it's easy to forget potential action taken by FOX.

I absolutely agree Dr. Connors that was some indication of damn fine acting. Also gotta give some credit to McBride who seems to do a fantastic job so far and I have no doubt in my mind that he will be amazing in Alien Covenant.

@ Neomoprh

 

The Neomorph attack in which the victim's head is mutilated...Are those guys apart of the Covenant or characters we've been introduced to already? Or someone else?

Do you guys think the reason why we haven't seen much of David is because there's a lot more to his motive/end game than we think? Is it possible that David is the real monster of this movie?

That's a good eye you have, TheXenoneoprotomorph. Interesting comparison of light, color, and content from all films.

The CG needs some slight touch ups, and I'm still not sure how I feel about the Protomorph design. It's very broad but thin and the tubes curve outward which to me is a very awkward design

First post here, so hi all!

Yea I'm starting to think David caused the extinction of the Engineer race

The ships in the film Prometheus all seemed to be almost military style "bomber" ships, capable of dropping hundreds/thousands of ampules onto a planet, like the one which the USC Prometheus rammed.

I'm guessing the engineer ships don't have FTL capability, so Shaw went into hibernation and David piloted the ship, perhaps the engineers shot the ship down, it crashed and released the cargo into the atmosphere/bio system, or David did that on purpose.

I can't tell if the corpses you see briefly are engineer or human, but they look burnt/dirty, and haven't decomposed, so perhaps this calamity took place recently.

Did anyone notice the chest burster scene to? Around 2:03 in the trailer.

Around 2:04, where you see all the internal doors shutting, the monitor shows what looks like David at the ships controls, I wonder if he purposely unleashes something on the main covenant ship?

David wipes out the engineers... Needs more humans for hosts... His Holy Grail arrives lol!

Posted something about David's workshop a bit ago, and was directed here. Nice job folks! Dig the thought of David bombing his way in on the Juggernaut... Makes sense!
