Shane Mahan, an Academy Award-nominated special ef

Shane Mahan, an Academy Award-nominated special effects makeup artist, is no stranger to the popular "Alien" horror/sci-fi franchise. After working on James Cameron’s 1984 game changer "The Terminator," Mahan secured an invite to join the director’s sequel to Ridley Scott’s terrifying space odyssey, "Aliens," where he spent eight weeks bringing the "Alien Queen" to life. Flash forward to present day where director Fede Álvarez is up next to take a stab at the legendary franchise with his entry "Alien: Romulus." Like Cameron before him, when it came time to crew up for his big production, Alvarez sought perfection. Mahan was immediately brought on board, marking his big return to the "Alien" series, only this time around, he’s running the show under his newly anointed banner of Legacy Effects. ✍️ @kalyncorrigan

Even before the Star Trek TV series, Adam Nimoy sa

Even before the Star Trek TV series, Adam Nimoy saw his father Leonard popping up in bit roles on some of his favorite shows like Get Smart, Sea Hunt, and The Man from U.N.C.L.E. Then one night he brought home Polaroids of himself in makeup and wardrobe for a pilot he was working on. It was December 1964 and nobody had heard of Star Trek. Still, the 8-year-old Adam had watched enough Outer Limits and My Favorite Martian to understand exactly what he was looking at. The rest is science fiction history. ✍️ @michelestueven Read this week's cover story at the link in bio 🖖

Here are some of our favorite shots by @karimelalfy_ For the full gallery, check out the link in bio.
