Alien 3 – The Legacy Cut Fan Edit Now Available!

After a nearly 5 years of meticulous work from the team over at Project A34K, the much anticipated Alien 3 – The Legacy Cut is now available! For those of you out there who are wondering what we’re talking about, The Legacy Cut is a fan edit of Alien 3 that aimed to upscale the film to 4K resolution and to finally do the film’s creature effects justice. Just that effort alone involved going frame by frame to trace around the puppet.

Check out Alien 3 – The Legacy Cut’s release trailer below!

In addition to changes to the colour grading, the Alien’s visual effects and some environmental tidying, Alien 3 – The Legacy Cut is also a slight blending of both the generally much preferred Assembly Cut and Theatrical Cut of Alien 3 which keeps the additional footage of the Assembly and Spike/the dogburster from the Theatrical Cut. There are also some additional narrative tweaks including changes to the opening credits to remove the facehugger.
