FX has not yet set a release date alien: earth Season 2. However, the renewal announcement states that shooting for Season 2 will begin in London in 2026. From this, we can make an educated guess based on the turnaround time of Season 1.
Season 1 of alien: earth Entered production in July 2023, although it began filming without its American SAG-AFTRA members due to the Hollywood strikes. (The British cast were able to film because they were not part of SAG-AFTRA.) Production was later halted due to the strike, before resuming in April of 2024 and then ending in July of 2024. The show premiered in August 2025, making a two-year turnaround from the start of production to release. This means we may have to wait until 2028 for Season 2.
However, production on a alien: earth Season 2 won’t have to deal with another SAG-AFTRA strike, which means it’ll be less time before Wendy (Sydney Chandler) and her xenomorphs hit our screens again.
alien: earth Season 1 is now streaming on Hulu.
