Here’s what they look like in real life.

As such, it is no surprise thatRick and Mortyseason 8seems set to mock another famous sci-fi series.

Similarly, 2017sAlien: Covenantended with the surviving characters entering cryo-sleep as their story came to a close.

This makes the upcoming episode particularly promising.

Rick and Mortyparodies horror movies almost as much as the show spoofs sci-fi.

Directed byAlien’s Ridley Scott,Prometheuspromised to explain the backstory of the Xenomorph and the Weyland-Yutani Corporation.

However, the prequel instead ended up making the convoluted franchises story even more contradictory and complex.

As such,there is no better time forRick and Mortyseason 8 to spoof theAlienmovies.

After all, the idea of cryo-sleep has appeared in plenty of other unrelated sci-fi movies, fromPassengerstoPandorum.

This would be a shame since anAlienparody would be perfectly timed in season 8.

Rick and Mortyseason 8 is expected to debut in 2025.

As theAlienfranchise grows in relevance, the timing ofRick and Mortys season 8 parody couldnt be better.

As such,Rick and Mortys season 8 tease needs to spoof the iconic series.
