Bollywood actor Adarsh Gourav is set to reprise his role as Slightly in the second season of 'Alien: Earth', executive-produced by Ridley Scott. 'Game of Thrones' star Peter Dinklage has joined the cast of the series, which is scheduled to begin filming next month.
In Season 1 of 'Alien: Earth', created by Noah Hawley, Gourav played a character named Slightly. The second season will see Gourav share screen space with a cast including Sydney Chandler, Alex Lawther, Essie Davis, Samuel Blenkin, Babou Ceesay, Timothy Olyphant, and Dinklage.
“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,” Gourav said in a statement.
“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,” the actor added.
The 31-year-old actor began his career in acting with 'Clean Shaven', a segment directed by Anurag Kashyap in the 2018 anthology film 'Madly'. He also starred in films like 'Mom' (2017), 'The White Tiger' (2021), 'Kho Gaye Hum Kahan' (2023), and 'Superboys of Malegaon' (2025).
