Series creator Joss Whedon had previously been the screenwriter of the 20th Century Fox film Alien - La clonazione (1997), in which a crew of space pirates are hired by scientists on a military vessel to kidnap humans in suspended animation, and smuggle them to the scientists to serve as hosts for aliens. Whedon had written the dialogue with a playful, tongue-in-cheek tone in mind, but was dismayed to find out that the director had made the actors do a straight, deadpan delivery of his lines. He later made Firefly, which is also about a ragtag band of space smugglers on a very old ship, incorporating the tone and humor he had originally meant for Alien: Resurrection. Whedon claimed that he wasn't aware of the similarities until someone pointed them out to him. As coincidence would have it, the Serenity set was built in the same studio as where the underwater kitchen scenes for Alien: Resurrection had been shot.
