Disney has released a new trailer showing off a number of the series coming to Disney+ in 2025, including a first look at Star Wars: Andor Season 2 and the Alien: Earth TV show.
In among clips from the likes of The Bear Season 4 and Star Wars Skeleton Crew are first looks at the hotly anticipated Andor Season 2, which comes out on Disney+ on April 22. We see Diego Luna’s Cassian Andor and Stellan Skarsgård’s Luthen Rael, as we’d expect, as well as a glimpse at K-2SO, the former Imperial enforcer droid who became a fan-favorite after appearing in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. Alan Tudyk reprises his role as the voice and motion capture artist for K-2SO in Andor Season 2.

Meanwhile, the trailer includes a first look at Alien: Earth, the upcoming FX TV series based on the Alien movie franchise and headed up by Fargo and Legion's Noah Hawley. Hawley had confirmed his upcoming Earth-set prequel series would include at least one of the franchise’s fearsome Xenomorphs, and we get a glimpse at it in the trailer.
“There’s something about seeing a Xenomorph in the wilds of Earth with your own eyes,” Hawley said in September.
Some fans grew concerned after Alien: Earth was revealed to take place in the early 2090s, placing it a few decades before the original Alien movie. It’s also a choice that means the series takes place even before Ridley Scott’s Prometheus, which follows events set in 2093 and explores the creation of the Xenomorphs.
Hawley said earlier this year that he decided to ignore Prometheus’ world-building when creating the story for Alien: Earth because "the idea that, on some level, it was a bioweapon created half an hour ago, that's just inherently less useful to me." Instead, he's more interested in embracing the retro-futurism of the first two movies.
