Alien: Romulus is the ninth film in the Alien franchise that started way back in 1989 with Ridley Scott’s classic sci-fi horror movie. That includes sequels, prequels, and even a couple crossovers with the Predator franchise. And the new Romulus movie actually draws pretty heavily on the existing lore of the series — mostly from Alien, but also from Aliens, Ridley Scott’s Prometheus, and even some of the other sequels.
