Signs have been dormant. But the Motion Tracker has now picked up incoming signals.
“To celebrate the 40th anniversary of Ridley Scott’s groundbreaking sci-fi horror film Alien (1979), six visionary filmmakers were selected to bring their Alien-inspired stories to life. From terrifying escapes, to Facehuggers and Xenomorphs, these captivating shorts brings forth an exciting new narrative for fans while paying homage to the original film.”
Alien: Alone — Hope, an abandoned crew member aboard the derelict chemical hauler Otranto, has spent a year trying to keep her ship and herself alive as both slowly fall apart. After discovering hidden cargo, she risks it all to power up the broken ship in search of human life. Written and directed by Noah Miller.
Alien: Containment — Four survivors find themselves stranded aboard a small escape pod in deep space. Trying to piece together the details around the outbreak that led to their ship’s destruction, they find themselves unsure to trust whether or not one of them might be infected. Written and directed by Chris Reading.
Alien: Harvest — The surviving crew of a damaged deep-space harvester have minutes to reach the emergency evacuation shuttle. A motion sensor is their only navigation tool leading them to safety while a creature in the shadows terrorizes the crew. However, the greatest threat might have been hiding in plain sight all along. directed by Benjamin Howdeshell.
Alien: Night Shift: — When a missing space trucker is discovered hungover and disoriented, his co-worker suggests a nightcap as a remedy. Near closing time, they are reluctantly allowed inside the colony supply depot where the trucker’s condition worsens, leaving a young supply worker alone to take matters into her own hands. Written and directed by Aidan Breznick.
Alien: Ore — As a hard-working miner of a planet mining colony, Lorraine longs to make a better life for her daughter and grandchildren. When her shift uncovers the death of a fellow miner under mysterious circumstances, Lorraine is forced to choose between escape or defying management orders and facing her fears to fight for the safety of her family. Written and directed by the Spear Sisters.
Alien: Specimen — It’s the night shift in a colony greenhouse, and Julie, a botanist, does her best to contain suspicious soil samples that have triggered her sensitive lab dog. Despite her best efforts the lab unexpectedly goes into full shutdown and she is trapped inside. Little does she know, an Alien specimen has escaped the mysterious cargo, and a game of cat and mouse ensues as the creature searches for a host. Written and directed by Kelsey Taylor.
There is also a seven part Digital series of Alien:Isolation. Focusing on the events afterwards but with flashbacks of the actual story featured in the game.

We got movement...
If you have the Alien:Covenant Blu-ray there is an omitted scene where David transmits his reports to Weyland-Yutani 's core network. The transmission includes his findings,creations and coordinates of the Engineers home planet.
Even though David is now Walter we get an official follow-up to that scene. But perhaps the omitted scene should have been left in the film to explain some of its complexity.

Although not related, some sub-plots and its imagery looks a lot like it could've been a part of the proper Prometheus trilogy we never got to see.

A long standing mystery has now been solved.
Alien 3 seemed more like throwing shit to a wall and see what stuck than actually explain any of the revelations or plot holes. Well here is one finally cleared up after 40 years revealing the question of how the stowaway face hugger on the EEV managed to travel down to the planet.
Here it is finally revealed.

The next series of Alien content leads with the context that it was already on Earth all the time. Therefore removing the mystery and the mythos from the original film and Prometheus.
This fan film leads with this but does it in an inventive way by basing it in the setting of WWI.

The synopsis tells us how the story bypasses Prometheus and Covenant. Which for now we won’t get to see how that plays out. Although a deleted scene unravels the intentions of everyone in Covenant.
The Romulus space station is tasked to search for the missing commercial hauler the Nostromo. But finds something frozen in the surrounding space of the Nostromos last known coordinates.
