In 2005, animated sci-fi adventure series, Ben 10 made its debut. The television show – created by Man of Action Studios – centred its story around Ben Tennyson, a young boy who acquires a high-tech device containing the DNA of ten different alien species.
Using the device (known as the Omnitrix), Ben is able to transform himself into powerful aliens, all with unique abilities. He then uses his extra-terrestrial skills to fight evil, with some added help from his cousin Gwen, as well as his grandfather Max.
Extremely popular when it aired, Ben 10 was a huge hit with audiences, running for four seasons between 2005 and 2008. The series then spawned various spin-off shows and movies, which continued the Ben 10 legacy and built up a sizeable fan base.
But are you familiar with all the Ben 10 TV shows and movies, and do you know what order to watch them in? Well, don’t worry, I can help.
From Ben 10: Alien Force through to Ben 10: Alien Swarm, I am putting everything in order. So, if you’ve ever considered starting a journey with Ben 10, but didn’t know how to go about it, this post should help you out.

Loosely connected Ben 10 live-action movies
Between 2007 and 2009, two Ben 10 live-action television movies were produced. These movies were loosely connected to the continuity of the first two animated shows, but were live-action pictures rather than animation.
The films are as follows:
- Ben 10: Race Against Time (2007) – Live-action movie
- Ben 10: Alien Swarm (2009) – Live-action movie
Race Against Time is set loosely within the events of the original Ben 10 series, albeit with events taking place in an alternate reality.
Alien Swarm is set loosely within the events of the Alien Force series, taking place between Season Two and Three.
