Noah Hawley appeared at the Emmy Awards over the weekend, teasing just how scary his Alien: Earth series will be.
Everyone on Earth can hear you scream, and Hawley apparently thinks you’ll be doing it regularly whenever Alien: Earth hits theaters next year. The creator of the Fargo franchise and Legion spoke with Deadline at the Emmy Awards, and he didn’t reveal any specific details about the upcoming horror drama, but he did set some general expectations for it. “It’s a feeling to witness an alien in the wilds of Earth,” Hawley said. “It’s chilling to think of it moving among us, so I can’t tell you under what circumstances you’ll see it, but you’ll see it – and you’ll lock the door that night.”

Little is known about the show, but it is expected to follow a young woman and a group of soldiers who come face to face with aliens on Earth. A trailer was released earlier this month, though it’s actually mostly just an alien and Earth.
