Before Fede Alvarez’s Alien: Romulus gives the franchise a brand new installment this coming August, Ridley Scott’s original horror classic Alien is headed back to theaters nationwide.

The Alien: 45th Anniversary Re-Release haunts theaters for “Alien Day” on Friday, April 26, 2024! You can check listings and grab tickets through Fandango now.

In celebration of the 45th anniversary of Ridley Scott’s 1979 sci-fi/horror masterpiece, the film will return to theaters for a limited time on April 26, known worldwide as Alien Day.

Plus, before the film, attendees will see “Alien: A Conversation with Ridley Scott & Fede Alvarez,” where Fede Alvarez sits down with Ridley Scott to discuss the film that started the iconic franchise.

You can watch a clip from that special bonus feature down below. In this clip, Ridley Scott and Fede Alvarez discuss the film’s iconic Chestburster scene. One person who couldn’t believe his eyes back in 1979? Stanley Kubrick! Ridley Scott relays a funny story to Alvarez, recalling the time when Kubrick called Scott wondering how the hell he pulled the nightmarish sequence off.

One of the most influential sci-fi/horror films of all time, Alien was released in June 1979 and won an Oscar for best visual effects. Tom Skerritt, Sigourney Weaver, Veronica Cartwright, Harry Dean Stanton, John Hurt, Ian Holm, and Yaphet Kotto star. It is the terrifying tale of a crew aboard a commercial spacecraft that lands on an alien planet to investigate a mysterious transmission of unknown origin and encounters the deadliest lifeform in the universe.

Up next, Alien: Romulus will be released only in theaters on August 16, 2024.
