Another Alien: Romulus Popcorn Bucket Is On The Way

Ever since the Dune popcorn bucket came along, it seems like the studios are in an unofficial contest to determine which one can come up with the most grotesque design. Who would have thought that Disney-owned Marvel would top Dune’s borderline obscene collectible with a hilariously gross Deadpool and Wolverine popcorn bucket? Now, it’s Alien: Romulus‘ turn to jump into the popcorn bucket wars.

The complete design of the Alien: Romulus popcorn bucket hasn’t been released online yet. Regardless, Fandango has shared a short video that offers a glimpse of its facehugger-inspired design. It’s not as obscene as the Dune or Deadpool and Wolverine popcorn buckets. But it is definitely eye-catching.

It’s a fitting choice for this popcorn bucket because the early trailers for Alien: Romulus hinted that we’ll see more facehuggers than ever before. The facehuggers in that footage move with alarming speed before attaching themselves to their victims and implanting their eggs. That goes a long way towards explaining why so many human colonies have been overrun by xenomorphs. Even at that stage in their lifecycle, those creatures are dangerous.

Subsequently, Cinemark shared a video on Twitter that reveals a separate popcorn bucket tie-in with Romulus, this one letting you fill up the head of a xenomorph with popcorn.

Alien: Romulus is scheduled to hit theaters on August 16. But the full reveal of the Alien: Romulus popcorn bucket will probably arrive much sooner than that.
