A dramatic recreation from Alien: Covenant unfolds on stage as an actor uses a glowing prop to perform a suspenseful surgery scene on another performer, who lies anxiously on the operating table. The immersive set and tense atmosphere evoke the chilling experience of Alien Day attractions, echoing the iconic intensity of both Alien: Covenant and The Crossing for fans of themed entertainment.

Happy Alien Day! Every April 26th, fans of the “Alien” franchise commemorate their love of the science fiction universe created back in 1979 (the date is a reference to the planet LV-426 that serves as the setting for the first two films in the series).

Today in celebration of the now-officially-embraced “Alien” holiday, 20th Century FOX released a short prologue entitled “The Crossing,” which bridges the gap between the movies “Prometheus” and “Alien: Covenant” by detailing what happened to Michael Fassbender and Noomi Rapace’s characters David the synthetic and Elizabeth Shaw after the events of the prior film.

WATCH:

“Alien: Covenant” will be released into theaters nationwide on Friday, May 19th.
