Alien: Earth creator Noah Hawley spoke about the importance of developing new creatures for his major FX sci-fi show.

In the summer of 1979, a just-turned-12 Noah Hawley fancied the idea of seeing Ridley Scott’s new film Alien at his local movie theatre in New York. His parents took him to see Alan Arkin and Peter Falk’s unpredictable comedy The In-Laws instead.

"Our show does take you to the trillionaires and the upper class," series creator Noah Hawley tells EW. A scene that arrives in episode 2 of Alien: Earth 's two-part premiere Tuesday night gives you a clear indication of the kind of show this is.
