Thursday’s trailer includes several haunting shots of violence and destruction on the crashed spaceship, including evidence that the humans on board were attacked by facehuggers. That’s about what fans expected from this show already, but Morrow’s ominous words about a different threat are more surprising. At the very least, he seems to imply that there were other alien lifeforms onboard the ship at one point, and that perhaps they’re as monstrous as the xenomorph itself.
The trailer clearly shows one close-up shot of a goat or sheep, but considering this series takes place on earth, it’s likely this is an earthbound creature, not an alien that has coincidentally evolved to resemble one. Other than that, it we see a shot of something drooping down through a ceiling hatch that looks a bit like an upside down ovamorph. We know that the xenomorph takes on genes and characteristics from its hosts, so it’s possible this is just a unique variation of the life cycle we haven’t seen yet, but it could also be one of the new “monsters” Morrow warns about.
