With Alien: Romulus hitting theaters this weekend, it was only a matter of time before The Asylum introduced their own “mockbuster” version. Enter Alien: Rubicon.
The Asylum is set to release Alien: Rubicon on digital platforms on August 23, 2024. You can catch a glimpse of what’s in store by watching the official trailer below, which teases the invasion of bootleg Xenomorphs in New York City.
For those eager to experience the film on the big screen, Alien: Rubicon will also be opening in select theaters on the same day:
• Laemmle Glendale – Glendale, CA
• Film Noir Cinema – Brooklyn, NY
• Aurora Cineplex – Roswell, GA
• Hickory Ridge Cinemas – Brunswick, OH
• Trylon Cinema – Minneapolis, MN
In The Asylum’s latest sci-fi thriller, an alien spacecraft lands in the ocean just off the coast of New York, obliterating everything in its path without even moving. As the craft makes its way inland, it continues to destroy everything effortlessly. The military soon discovers that the spacecraft is actually a probe, sent specifically to provoke a response from humanity as it heads straight for Washington, D.C. If it reaches the nation’s capital, it will annihilate it and send a signal to the rest of the alien species to commence a full-scale invasion and wipe out the planet.
With all conventional methods failing, it’s a race against time for the scientists and military to devise a way to stop the unstoppable before it’s too late.
Alien: Rubicon stars Michael Paré alongside Preston Geer, Paul Logan, Neeley Dayan, Vinney Pugliese, and Tammy Klein. Directed by Adrian Avila and written by Glenn Campbell, this film promises to deliver The Asylum’s signature blend of thrilling chaos and action-packed entertainment.
