Sigourney Weaver Says Neill Blomkamp’s ALIEN 5 Will "Break A Lot Of New Ground"
While talking with Variety, Actor Sigourney Weaver not only reveals that she couldn't think of a better director to direct the new Alien film, but it will "break a lot of new ground as well.”
In a recent interview with Variety, Sigourney Weaver - who has starred in every Alien film - says that she could not "think of a better director" to direct the newest film in the Alien Franchise. While saying that, she also says she thinks Neill Blomkamp will take the Alien universe in an unexpected direction, while breaking new grounds. "I think he’ll be true to the world and take it in unexpected directions. It’s got a lot of sinew in it. It will certainly stand up to the others and probably break a lot of new ground as well.”
Sigourney Weaver has appeared in every Alien film, except for the Alien Vs Predator films, so she would be among the few people who know if the franchise is in good hands. Very little details were released about the film thus far, but all we know as of now is that we'll see Sigourney Weaver back in action as Ripley taking on some Xenomorphs!
