“Alien: Romulus” To Be Released On VHS
Over the weekend, a special screening of “Alien: Romulus” at the Aero Theater in Los Angeles, the film’s director Fede Alvarez revealed that Disney is going to be releasing the film on a fully functioning VHS tape, which has been created in celebration of the 45th anniversary of the legendary Alien franchise.
This truly terrifying sci-fi horror-thriller takes the phenomenally successful Alien franchise back to its iconic roots. While scavenging the deep ends of a derelict space station, a group of young colonizers come face-to-face with the most relentless and deadly life form in the universe.
Starring Cailee Spaeny, David Jonsson, Archie Renaux, Isabela Merced, Spike Fearn and Aileen Wu, “Alien: Romulus” is directed by horror master Fede Alvarez from a screenplay by Alvarez and frequent collaborator Rodo Sayagues based on characters created by Dan O’Bannon and Ronald Shusett. Ridley Scott — who directed the original Alien and the series entries Prometheus and Alien: Covenant — produces with Michael Pruss and Walter Hill.
The VHS package features artwork by renowned artist Matt Ferguson.
The film is now available on digital platforms to purchase and the VHs will also be released alongside other physical media formats, including 4K UHD, Blu-ray and DVD on December 3rd 2024, with exclusive bonus features, including featurettes with filmmakers Fede Alvarez and Ridley Scott, behind the scenes content, and alternate and extended scenes.
