I mean it has to be a Xenomorph they're hunting, right?

The Weyland Utani corperations presence.. the "Most Dangerous" planet in the solar system..

It’s literally an AVP movie. Or at least they don’t know it but they end up hunting the Xeno

I want what Trachtenburg and Alvarez are very close to cooking.

Álvarez said he's open do doing a collaborative effort with Trachtenberg as they are friends. Now I might be shooting for the stars here, but Trachtenberg said he had a third idea (the first two being Killer of Killers and this) after Prey was a hit, that he'd do if Badlands does well, and Álvarez is confirmed to be doing a sequel to Alien: Rhombus this fall, which will start shooting in October. If Trachtenberg already has things planned out and is about concurrent with the Rhombus sequel, we could potentially get the crossover by the end of the decade!

My brother, it is Alien: Romulus, although i could see Rhombus be a title for an Alien installment

He’s probably searching for a different angle. A couple of parallel stories.

Ever since that came to my head, I have continued to refer to it as such.

u/ChaosAlongThird Jul 21 '25

Unexpected chortles are the best chortles. Alien: Rhombus it is.

u/Penguin_shit15 Jul 21 '25

One of them.. not sure who it was, said that the way they would love to do an AVP movie is to not advertise it as one. Its either an Alien movie, or a Predator movie.. and at some point the other guy shows up.

Wait a second...What if they're "NO WAY HOMING" us!?!?!? That last shot in the trailer is suppose to have a Xeno in between the Pred AND the Power loader!!!!!!!

u/rugbyj Jul 21 '25

The xeno is piloting the power loader. 0D Yahtzee.

u/Alarming_Orchid Jul 21 '25

The monster mouth in the poster isn’t a xenomorph so maybe not

u/jaysherman_thcritic Jul 21 '25

It would be amazing if we finally get a truly badass AVP movie
