There is barely anything in common between the story of a Malegaon boy-turned-filmmaker and a sci-fi horror set in the future. And that’s exactly the wide range of stories Adarsh Gourav wants to chase. After leading Superboys of Malegaon, the actor will be seen in Alien: Earth, a spin-off of Ridley Scott’s popular Alien movie franchise. On May 14, the makers unveiled the Hulu series’ first look that sees Gourav alongside Timothy Oliphant, Sydney Chandler, and Kit Young, among others.
