Earlier today, fans were treated to an intriguing new key art poster for Alien: Earth, the highly anticipated FX on Hulu series created by Noah Hawley (Fargo). The chilling message behind the artwork? Perhaps space is safer than Earth. And now, with the release of the official teaser, we have a glimpse into why that might be terrifyingly true.
A Terrifying Discovery on Earth
