Alvarez was attached to the project in 2022. Years earlier, he had pitched a new Alien story to Ridley Scott, who remembered Alvarez's story enough to invite him to write and direct the next film when it went into production. One of the first things Alvarez considered was when to set the film. He decided to set it between Alien and Aliens. Ridley Scott served as a producer, while James Cameron worked as an unofficial consultant.
The characters are younger than those found in other Alien films. The idea for this came from the extended cut of Aliens, where children can be seen in Hadley's Hope before the Xenomorph outbreak. According to Alvarez, "what would it be like for those kids to grow up in a colony that still needs another 50 years to terraform? So I remember thinking, if I ever tell a story in that world, I would definitely be interested in those kids when they reach their early twenties."
The team who worked on the Xenomorphs in Aliens were brought in to create the film's Xenomorphs. A director's cut was shown to both Scott and James Cameron, both of whom gave the film their approval.
The title was officially confirmed by Disney in Q1 2024. The film was originally intended to release on Hulu, but before shooting began, it was decided to release it in theaters instead.
•Siblinghood is an intended theme of the film. This is reflected in the character roster (many of the characters are siblings), the design and namesakes of Renaissance (the Romulus and Remus modules), and the titular Roman figures.
