Alien: Romulus Director Reveals The Movie’s Surprising Connection To The Last Of Us
Alien: Romulus director Fede Alvarez has revealed that the sci-fi movie has a surprising connection to The Last of Us. This story contains spoilers for Alien: Romulus and The Last of Us.
Posting on social media, Alvarez said he was playing The Last of Us: Part II while he was writing Romulus, and the storyline of Dina being pregnant gave him the idea that Kay should be pregnant in the movie.
After this, Alvarez cast Isabela Merced as Kay… and a year later she was cast as Dina on HBO’s The Last of Us. “True story,” Alvarez said.
