Director and co-writer Fede Álvarez and the cast of “Alien: Romulus” showcased never-before-seen footage at Hall H during San Diego Comic-Con, featuring terrifying Facehuggers and a Chestburster.

The franchise’s original director, Ridley Scott, served as producer for this installment. Actors Cailee Spaeny, David Jonsson, Archie Renaux, Isabela Merced, and Spike Fearn joined the panel to discuss their experiences working on the upcoming 20th Century Studios film.

“While scavenging the deep ends of a derelict space station, a group of young space colonizers come face to face with the most terrifying life form in the universe,” reads the synopsis.

“Alien: Romulus” is set between the events of “Alien” and its sequel “Aliens,” though Álvarez noted, “You really don’t need to have seen the other ones to understand or enjoy this film. If you have, it’s a treat. If you haven’t, then I’m jealous.”

Álvarez also answered video questions from surprise guests Ridley Scott and Guillermo Del Toro.

“Alien: Romulus” is set to open in theaters on August 16.
