Dark Horse Comics turned William Gibson’s unproduced screenplay for Alien 3 into a comic book mini-series back in 2018, and this year they’re bringing Dan O’Bannon‘s original take on Alien to life as a mini-series with Alien: The Original Screenplay, THR reports!

Cristiano Seixas and Guilherme Balbi have adapted O’Bannon’s original screenplay for the 5-issue miniseries, offering up what Dark Horse describes as “an alternate line of events.”

Long story short, O’Bannon’s script for Alien was re-written by Walter Hill and David Giler after he signed a deal with their company Brandywine. One of the most notable things Hill and Giler added was the android character Ash, not in O’Bannon’s script. The original screenplay for Alien also does not feature the character of Ellen Ripley; the hero is named Martin Roby.

Alien: The Original Screenplay will debut on April 22, 2020.
