Alien Nation Remake In Development From Iron Man Writers

It’s reported the 1980s science-fiction movie that was produced by The Walking Dead‘s Gale Anne Hurd, Alien Nation, is getting a remake at Fox.

THR reports Iron Man writers Art Marcum and Matt Holloway are writing the script.

It’s said the new Alien Nation remake will begin by telling how and why the aliens came to Earth, and it’s said the Alien Nation remake will be a similar reimagining to what Fox did with the Planet of the Apes franchise.

The Alien Nation movie debuted in 1988 and spawned a one-season TV series in addition to TV movies that centered around two cops – one human and the other alien – as they dealt with the integration of the alien society, The Newcomers, in future Los Angeles.
