1979’s Alien first introduced the mysterious space jockey without further exploring it, simply showing a creature who had been killed by the Xenomorph. But in 2012, Prometheus revealed that the jockey belonged to a race of aliens which created humanity.

Alien: Covenant is set for an earlier release than expected, hitting screens on May 19, 2017.
