ALIEN: ROMULUS Chest-Bursts Onto Digital In October, And Physical Media This Decemeber!
It’s been a long time since anyone has been able to say that an “Alien” franchise movie is one of the best movies of the year, but 2024 has all kinds of surprises for us! It’s wild to imagine that it took us this long to get another film in the franchise of this caliber, and while “Alien: Covenant” fans will say otherwise “Alien: Romulus” is more the kind of affair us xenomorph freaks have been waiting for.
If you didn't catch it in theaters, for shame, that’s okay! On October 15, 2024, you can purchase “Alien: Romulus” on PVOD or you can wait another month and some change to get the 4k UHD Blu-Ray on December 3, 2024, just in time to stock those stuffings with acidic blood. Check out the press release below for more details!
