Alien: Romulus' ending leaves the door open for another entry in the franchise.

We break down the Alien sequel’s final moments & what might come next.

Did The Engineers Create The Xenomorph Or Not?

The Engineers, as their name implies, engineered entire species like humanity itself.

As such, it is entirely believable that they could have created the Xenomorph, too.

However, this doesnt clarify where the Xenomorph comes in.

The Xenomorph may even be the source of the black goo, as some theories suggest.

The problem is thatPrometheusandAlien: Covenantrefused to canonically clarify whether this is the case.

This could involve retconningPrometheuss events, but it could as easily mean explaining the prequels story further.

SincePrometheusnever explains whether the Engineers created the Xenomorph,Alien: Earthdoesnt necessarily need to undo the prequels story.
