Actor Adarsh Gourav, known for his performance in movies such as The White Tiger (2021), Kho Gaye Hum Kahan (2023) and Tu Yaa Main (2026), is all set to reprise his role in the second season of Ridley Scott's Alien: Earth.

Games of Thrones star Peter Dinklage also joins the cast of the series, which is set to begin filming next month.

Following season 1, Adarsh returns to reprise his role as "Slightly", a character noted for its emotional depth and complexity.

Created by Noah Hawley, with Ridley Scott serving as executive producer, the second season of Alien: Earth will see Adarsh share screen space with an ensemble cast including Sydney Chandler, Alex Lawther, Essie Davis, Samuel Blenkin, Babou Ceesay, Timothy Olyphant, and Peter.

"Being a part of Alien: Earth has been an incredibly special experience for me. The response to season one, especially to my character, has been truly overwhelming and deeply encouraging. Slightly is such a unique and emotionally complex character, and getting the opportunity to explore his journey further in Season 2 is something I'm really looking forward to,” Adarsh said in a statement.

"Working with a team led by visionaries like Noah Hawley and Ridley Scott is inspiring in every sense, and being surrounded by such talented co-actors pushes you to constantly grow. I'm excited to get back on set and dive into this world again," she added.
