About the film
The path to paradise begins in hell.
What it’s about
The crew of the colony ship Covenant, bound for a remote planet, discovers what appears to be an uncharted paradise. It is actually a dark, dangerous world. Its only inhabitant is David, a synthetic android left over from the failed Prometheus expedition.
What hooks you
Ridley Scott returns to the universe he created, steering the saga back toward the tone of the original 1979 film. Michael Fassbender plays David and Walter, and Katherine Waterston plays Daniels. The film was nominated for a Saturn Award for Best Science Fiction Film.
Who it’s for
It suits viewers who like science fiction that blends cosmic horror with philosophical questions about creation and artificial life. It suits viewers who enjoy slow-burning dread, claustrophobic settings, and the dread of an unseen alien predator stalking its prey.
