Alien: Earth Cast Talks Meeting a Predator in Potential Crossover

With Alien: Earth fast approaching its release date, the cast of the FX series has voiced their thoughts about a potential crossover with the Predator universe. In a recent interview, Babou Ceesay, Timothy Olyphant, and Sam Blenkin explained how their respective characters might respond if they ever crossed paths with a member of the savage warrior race from the Predator franchise.

While speaking with ScreenTime, Ceesay, Olyphant, and Blenkin mentioned that all three of their Alien: Earth characters would express a lot of interest if they ever came across a Predator in a possible crossover movie or TV series.

Ceesay, who portrays a cybernetically enhanced cyborg named Morrow in the upcoming series, noted, “Morrow would relish it, I think, like deep fascination.” Meanwhile, Olyphant, who plays the role of Kirsh, the synthetic mentor and trainer of Sydney Chandler’s Wendy, reiterated Ceesay’s sentiments by providing a collective answer for the trio. He looked at both of his co-stars before stating, “Same, right? I feel like we’re all playing.”

On the other hand, Sam Blenkin seemed to have a calmer reaction in mind for his Alien: Earth character potentially meeting a Predator. As he plays the billionaire CEO of the Prodigy Corporation, Boy Kavalier, who remains in constant pursuit of knowledge and authority, Blenkin noted, “I think, oddly enough, we’d all be delighted. I’d probably introduce myself as ‘Hi, I’m Boy Kavalier!'”

So far, the two intergalactic horror franchises have spawned two crossover films, 2004’s Alien vs. Predator and the 2007 sequel Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem. Notably, Predator: Badlands director Dan Trachtenberg has already given his approval to the idea of making another similar film, stating, “It would be awesome to be able to tell more stories that have further connections,” in a recent interview. Aspects of the Alien franchise are also expected to feature in Predator: Badlands. However, no official word on a direct crossover project has come out as of yet.
