Veteran genre film actor Lance Henriksen is talking about his Aliens vs. Predator role as Charles Bishop Weyland, the driving force behind the plot of the Aliens movies.

During a recent publicity tour, Henriksen answered fans’ questions about his character: "In a sense, this is a prequel to Alien and Aliens and all of that. My name in the movie is Charles Bishop Weyland. This time, I'm playing a billionaire who is dying. And he decides to have one last hurrah in his life and do something that is worthwhile.

"So his satellite discovers a pyramid under the ice on an island, and I get this group together to check it out because I want to be remembered for something besides money. And we get there, and it's like stepping into the mouth of a crocodile without knowing it. That's where it begins, that's where it starts."
