The next chapter of the Alien saga is set to return the franchise to its terrifying roots. Alien: Covenant, directed by Ridley Scott, will aim to scare audiences out of their seats when released this summer.

The biggest take-away here? The fans were given the first full look at the Xenomorph in Covenant.
While the previous trailers showed some more cryptic images of the alien, and a look at a young Xenomorph, the villain in this trailer is a total monster.
There are plenty of different shots of the alien throughout the footage, but the best – and scariest – look comes towards the very end. A fully-grown Xenomorph is tearing apart a helicopter, and it proves why it’s such a dangerous opponent.
Watch the trailer above to catch the Xenomorph in action!
