So far, she doesn\u2019t have a first name (at least not yet). Her official profile says \u201cShe has the surety and poise of a woman who owns one-fifth of the entire planet and much more in space. Her grandmother sent the USCSS <em>Maginot<\/em> on its mission. Therefore, Yutani considers what\u2019s on the ship not just her property, but her birthright.\u201d In this era, Weyland-Yutani is one of the five corporations that rule the Earth. They create\/control almost everything, including synthetic beings. The Five function in place of actual governments in this time. One of its biggest rivals is Prodigy, a multi-trillion-dollar company run by the genius Boy Kavalier.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">RELATED ARTICLE<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"link \" href=\"https:\/\/nerdist.com\/article\/how-alien-earth-fits-into-the-alien-franchise-timeline\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:How ALIEN: EARTH Fits Into the ALIEN Franchise Timeline;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\">How ALIEN: EARTH Fits Into the ALIEN Franchise Timeline<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">In 2120, when <em>Alien: Earth<\/em> takes place, Weyland-Yutani is a relatively recent power in the world. It formed when the Weyland Corp took over Yutani Corporation in the year 2099 after a fierce bidding war. In her few scenes in <em>Alien: Earth,<\/em> we see Yutani in a glittering high-rise, taking a call from her cyborg employee Morrow (Babou Ceesay), the sole survivor of the <em>Maginot<\/em>. When he talks to her, he doesn\u2019t recognize her as the Yutani that he remembers. She reminds him that the Yutani he knew was her grandmother, as his mission left for space 65 years earlier. However, she informs him that he is still under contract to Yutani, and therefore she is still his boss. And she wants him to retrieve the lost alien specimens by any means necessary.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"Actress Sandra Yi Sencindiver as Yutani in Alien: Earth\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"541\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/MMVlcyIIIV40YCBhM3F8FA--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTU0MTtjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/nerdist_761\/b908595e4634975a1a86c9fdc096b5de\"\/><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p><em>FX\/Hulu<\/em><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Given that <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/nerdist.com\/article\/alien-one-minute-fan-recreation-contest\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:the original Alien;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">the original <em>Alien<\/em><\/a> takes place a mere two years after<em> Alien: Earth,<\/em> it stands to reason that the Yutani played by Sandra Yi Sencindiver is the same one who is giving orders to the android Ash (Ian Holm) via MU-TH-UR, the <em>Nostromo\u2019s<\/em> computer system.
