Alien: Earth season 1 episode 7 - Release date and timings for all regions

Alien: Earth Season 1 Episode 7 titled Emergence arrives in the Americas on Tuesday, September 16, 2025, with streaming at 5:00 p.m. PT / 8:00 p.m. ET on Hulu and a same-day FX telecast. Most international regions get the episode on Wednesday via Disney+ (Star). FX’s show hub lists the series in the Tuesday 8 p.m. slot, with weekly releases leading to the finale on September 23.

Created by Noah Hawley, Alien: Earth is set in 2120 and stars Sydney Chandler, Timothy Olyphant, Alex Lawther, Essie Davis, Babou Ceesay, and Adarsh Gourav, among others. The series acts as a prequel within the Alien universe, expanding corporate rivalries (Weyland-Yutani vs. Prodigy), hybrid bodies, and new lifeforms while keeping the franchise’s survival stakes.

Alien: Earth Season 1 Episode 7 follows episode 6 (The Fly), which pivoted the story with lab breaches, a fatal hybrid incident, and a covert move that sets up a confrontation. Expect Emergence to carry those threads forward as the penultimate chapter of season 1. FX’s official teaser frames it as an escape attempt that fractures loyalties and sparks a “shocking confrontation.”

As per The Guardian report dated July 31, 2025, creator Noah Hawley stated,

“Maybe the best monster ever invented, cinematically,”

explaining why the xenomorph works differently in a long-form series. As per a ComicBook.com interview dated August 4, 2025, Noah Hawley remarked,

“I think we’re giving them a run for their money, certainly. But their value is added. They are scary in the egg stage, the facehugger stage, and the chest burster stage. They got something for everyone, those xenomorphs,” when asked if the classic creatures are still the scariest in Alien: Earth.

Previously on episode 6 (The Fly) and what to expect in Alien: Earth season 1 episode 7 Emergence

Where episode 6 left us: The Fly escalated the island crisis. A lab breach led to Tootles’ death, undercutting claims of hybrid “immortality.” Hermit pushed for an escape with Wendy, while Slightly delivered Arthur to a facehugger under covert orders, an act that re-tilted the board toward corporate extraction plans and retaliation. As per an Entertainment Weekly report dated September 11, 2025, franchise icon Sigourney Weaver stated,

“I have to make a date with my husband because I don't want to see it by myself in case one of those things comes out of the screen. So we have to set it up. So I'm behind seeing it, but the ones I've seen are fascinating.”

Adding that the series is

“I think it's beautifully cast and beautifully done. I can't believe it's television, frankly.”

What to expect in Alien: Earth season 1 episode 7: FX’s official logline for Emergence reads:

“An escape plan is hatched leading to a breaking of factions, betrayals, and a shocking confrontation.”

That implies an active breakout attempt, hard choices among the Lost Boys, and tracker-cat-and-mouse across Neverland’s facilities, momentum designed to point straight at the finale. For context on Hawley’s serialized approach, The Guardian interview dated July 31, 2025, quotes him as saying:

“But in a 10-hour, 30-hour, 50-hour show the monsters have to exist for a reason. You’re also not killing everybody off, so there has to be a continuing serialised story in which the monsters fit.”

It highlights why loyalties and corporate aims drive the horror beats as much as the creatures.
