Trailer For The Sci-Fi Adventure Film XENO and It Has Heavy E.T. Vibes
We’ve got a trailer her for you to watch for a sci-fi adventure film titled XENO, and this isn’t your average alien encounter movie. As you’ll see, the movie has heavy E.T. vibes, but it’s a little bit darker.
The movie stars Lulu Wilson (Becky, The Haunting of Hill House) as Renee, a teenage girl who stumbles upon a crash-landed alien and forms an unexpected bond with it. But this isn’t a wide-eyed visitor with a glowing finger, it’s a towering, clawed creature with supernatural powers, capable of lifting Renee into the air and outrunning an ATV.
The trailer captures a mix of awe and danger. Renee keeps the alien hidden as authorities close in, but the creature's power and appearance hint at chaos waiting to erupt.
The footage leans into classic Spielbergian wonder while teasing brutal, high-stakes action. There’s a tension between the warmth of their connection and the horror that seems inevitable.
The movie was written and directed by first-timer Matthew Loren Oates and it was produced by Kevin Hart through his Hartbeat company.
XENO is being distributed by Blue Fox Entertainment and will hit U.S. theaters on September 19th. Check out the trailer and tell us what you think!
