Alien: Earth episode 3 sets stage for bigger battles, check precap, and upcoming release schedule here

Alien: Earth episode 3 Metamorphosis recap: Alien: Earth is becoming the most-talked-about sci-fi series of the year. The FX show has released its third episode, leaving fans buzzing with questions about Wendy, Joe, the xenomorphs and what comes next. If you are wondering what happened in the latest episode and when you can catch episode 4, here's a full recap and the release schedule. Alien: Earth overview The series is a prequel to Ridley Scott's iconic 1979 film Alien. Created by FX, the show follows the story of Wendy, played by Sydney Chandler, who is the first hybrid, a humanoid robot carrying human consciousness. The show begins after a mysterious spacecraft crashes on Earth. From there, Wendy joins a group of tactical soldiers who soon discover the planet's deadliest threat. According to the official synopsis, their discovery changes not only their mission but the future of Earth itself. Set in the year 2120, the world is ruled by five powerful corporations: Prodigy, Weyland-Yutani, Lynch, Dynamic and Threshold. In this time, humans live alongside cyborgs; people with artificial and biological parts; and synthetics, who are humanoid robots with AI. Things take a darker turn when hybrids are introduced, creating a new kind of life form that disrupts the balance. Cast of Alien: Earth The show features a strong ensemble cast. Sydney Chandler leads as Wendy, while Timothy Olyphant plays Kirsh. Alex Lawther stars as Hermit, Babou Ceesay as Morrow, and Samuel Blenkin as Boy Kavalier. Together, they play soldiers, scientists, and leaders caught in the middle of a deadly experiment. The first two episodes premiered on August 12 on FX and Hulu, with new episodes rolling out weekly. Alien: Earth episode 3, Metamorphosis's recap Episode 3, titled Metamorphosis, begins with high tension. Wendy rushes to save Joe from a xenomorph while Kirsh and his group try to contain the alien specimens. The soldiers realize the mission is no longer about rescue but containment. Kavalier orders them to collect five species and bring them to the quarantine lab. Joe is found alive but trapped in alien glue. The xenomorph uses this as bait, attacking from above. Wendy fights back with her sword, piercing it but causing its acid blood to burn through the floor. The fight turns brutal as the xenomorph fatally injures Joe. Despite this, Wendy and Joe work together to trap it, with Joe even hotwiring a door to help. In the end, Wendy kills the alien by decapitating it, though both siblings collapse from their injuries. Meanwhile, Morrow finds alien eggs on the ship. Instead of destroying them, he uploads the data into his head and questions what it means to be a machine. When one egg opens, Morrow jumps off the ship rather than being captured. Later, he secretly contacts Yutani and promises to deliver the specimens. Back at Prodigy, Joe and Wendy are taken to Neverland on stretchers. Kavalier sees the capture as a victory and begins preparing for more experiments. Kirsh, however, warns him about the dangers of the alien eggs and facehuggers. In the lab, Kirsh dissects one egg, removing a facehugger, while Wendy suffers painful reactions, hinting at a deeper connection to the creatures. The episode closes with Kirsh placing alien material into a tank with Joe's severed lung, creating a disturbing new experiment. At the same time, Wendy passes out unnoticed, setting the stage for even bigger conflicts ahead. What to expect next The ending of episode 3 leaves several storylines hanging. Morrow is on his own mission, carrying dangerous alien data. Wendy's connection to the xenomorphs appears stronger than before. Kirsh continues dangerous experiments that could lead to disaster, while Kavalier's obsession with choosing his 'favourites' among the hybrids sparks new rivalries. The seeds of betrayal, survival and power are clearly being planted. Episode 4 release time Episode 4 of Alien: Earth, titled Observation, will release on FX on August 26. It will also stream on Hulu and Disney Plus at 5pm PT / 8pm ET.
