There are a total of nine movies in the Alien franchise— four in the mainline series of films, two Predator crossovers, two prequels from Ridley Scott, and, the newest addition, a standalone movie from Fede Álvarez.
1. AVP: Alien vs. Predator
The story of the Xenomorphs begins, time-wise, in the first of the two crossover films for the franchise, AVP. Set in 2004, Alien vs. Predator, from Resident Evil/Event Horizon's Paul W. S. Anderson, brought to life a "battle of the titans" concept that first originated in a 1989 comic. In the film, humans discover that Predators (aka the "Yautja") have been coming to Earth for thousands of years. Old cults worshipping them would sacrifice themselves to a Xenomorph Queen's brood -- the facehu...
2. Aliens vs Predator: Requiem
Still set in our modern times, and therefore still happening before everything else in the Alien franchise, crossover sequel Aliens vs Predator: Requiem picks up right where AVP left off. An Alien-Predator hybrid -- the "Predalien" -- is now on the loose in a small Colorado town. A skilled, veteran Predator arrives to help clean up the mess and an ample amount of carnage ensues. This would be the final crossover film of the Alien franchise. You can see our guide to the Predator movies in orde...
3. Prometheus
Oscar-winning director Ridley Scott returned to the franchise he created in 1979 with the star-studded prequel film, Prometheus. Here, in the late 21st Century, Peter Weyland (presumedly a descendant of AVP's Charles Weyland) funds a cosmic trip into the unknown, following a star map left on Earth that might lead the crew of the Prometheus to the beings who created humankind. Sadly, the crew also stumbles across these creators' bio-weapon -- the Xenomorph. Noomi Rapace, Michael Fassbender, Id...

The newest addition to the Alien-verse is Alien: Romulus, and despite its box office success, it's unclear whether we'll see more of Rain's story in the future. Beyond the big screen, there's also an Alien TV series in the works at FX. While the series, called Alien: Earth, is another prequel to the original Alien films, showrunner Noah Hawley does...

Oct 26, 2003 · 7 min read. A discovery on an alien planet in "Alien." At its most fundamental level, “Alien” is a movie about things that can jump out of the dark and kill you. It shares a kinship with the shark in “ Jaws,” Michael Myers in “ Halloween,” and assorted spiders, snakes, tarantulas and stalkers.
