There's two general areas of thought here they are finding out in mainstream science that are quite exciting. One is the existence of a much greater percentage of possibly Earth-like planets than originally thought. These would have a sun similar to ours and traditionally Earth-like features, but of course be unique within that idea. The other things they are starting to extrapolate are that different setups than traditional/Earth like may actually be able to support 3d physical life as we know it.
These would be examples that would have inhospitable surface conditions and basically look like crap by the standards we've been used to thinking for space exploration, but could have the right conditions on the interior of the planet for life. One channeled source I've listened to said there were "hairless apes"(us non-scaly types, lol) within the interiors of Mercury and Pluto. Maybe. I've though of it and if there was a goldilocks zone in the interior of Mercury, creating a thermoelectric energy grid that used the planet's heat differential to produce electricity would be extremely efficient and provide a lot of power for the 3d amenities of living.
Moons of gas giants could be hospitable to life either on the surface or interior with certain conditions. Brown and red dwarf systems similarly could be possible for physical life to live there.
Even rogue planets that travel through space and don't orbit a star, could potentially have an active enough volcanic climate to be self-contained habitats for life without a star. There are a lot of rogue planets and small dwarf star systems and other objects that have elongated, weird, or rogue/nomadic orbits out there in various places. Orion is one region with a high concentration of objects like this moving around.
They rarely explore these types of planets in sci-fi, usually depicting the vast majority of ET planets as traditionally Earth-like while not exploring a rogue volcanic planet or a dwarf star system and stuff like that quite enough.
