Chest Buster! ‘Alien: Covenant’ Poster and Release Date Unveiled

The poster for Alien: Covenant has been released by 20th Century Fox. It was posted via the studio’s official Twitter account. The image is simple, striking and frightening, with a one-word tagline of “Run”. In other words, it’s perfect for the iconography of the series.  You can view the poster below.

Surprisingly the poster and Tweet also gives a release date of May 19, 2017. This is a full three months sooner than its original planned spot for late summer in August of that year.
