Rebellion recently hinted that there may be guest star appearances in the upcoming Aliens vs. Predator game. Today, Sega announced Lance Henriksen (Aliens, Alien 3, AvP) was one of those guest stars who did some voice work for the game. He plays Karl Bishop Weyland, the descendant of Weyland-Yutani corporation founder Charles Bishop Weyland. We bring you an exclusive video interview with the man himself, Lance Henriksen.

Many thanks to Lance for taking the time out to do the interview and to Sega and ikarop for handling this interview. You can also view another interview with Lance Henriksen over on AliensvsPredator.net via YouTube.

Update: You can now view a new video interview with Lance Henriksen on IGN. There’s also a written interview on G4TV.

Awesome    ;D   I can't wait to hear his voice in the game, gonna be sweet    :D  

Nice

Someone should ask on whats his take on Rodriguez's PREDATORS, since it's nothing to do with P2, or the AvP films, yet somehow.. this game does.

this is awesome, brings back great memories from the aliens movies!!!!:)

What a legend, he should hangout with us lot on here :) And I was surprised when no one asked him about Bishop being Human or Android in Alien 3.   Btw these sorts of videos make me proud to be apart of this site.

Bishop refrences ripley in the game all you need know is the Adagio track from Alien 3 while he talkes about here

Just came back from seeing this at aliensvspredator.net. Absolutely Awesome !

Awesome interview!!! Gotta love Lance Henriksen! The game is looking pretty good too, great music!! can't wait!

Lance is class.   And a great voice actor too.

Great!

@ Alien: If you rewatch Alien 3 and turn the subtitles on you will notice that when Lance is speaking it says "Bishop II." Btw I didn't know if he was still alive. Great to finally hear from him again.   ;D  

He's credited as Bishop II, doesn't matter tho  if this is 30 years after Alien 3, then Karl Bishop Weyland = Bishop II's son

Thank god he is still alive, who else to have as a antagonist in the ALIENS vs Predator game than good ol' Bishop with his REAL voice actor!  Seems he also gave us a huge look at what the game's story might consist of.

  ;D   loved it

This is FREAKING AWESOME! Lance is the man! Nothing but Gold here.

Awesome interview!   ;D   "I might score from this game", best interview line ever.   :D   Lance is the man. lol  There's some great tidbits of info as well as some cool insight to the character and the game. This is looking damn good.   ;)   I can't wait to see him pick the Weyland mantle again for this next AVP installment.   :D  

FULL OF WIN

Guys you ever wondered who voiced Shepherd in Modern Warfare 2? Strangely enough he voiced the 5th Fleet commander in Mass Effect lol, its awesomeness like this thats makes me hate not being able to play the bloody game now coz of our f**king censorship laws, i am not proud to be an Australian citizen, i should defect.

I always knew Bishop was evil.  You can't trust androids!

Hey at least Bishop was nice to Ripley in Aliens he saved her and Newt from the colony explosion so he counts as the good android but yeah you can't really trust them at all but lets not forget Call as well at least she didnt try to pull Ripley's hair ^^ ! I have to agree with Lance right there after Aliens then Ridely directs another sequel then Carmon again. I just wish they can remake Alien 3 only this time with everyone alive not Dead and taking place somewhere else other than earth of course!! I'm glad AvPGalaxy took their time for making this this interview with Lance it surely brighten our day!

Awesome.    :)   I wonder who 'she' is who doesn't "realise the magnificence of what she sought to destroy"?    ;)  

Classic, "You just stay the hell away from me Bishop, you got that!?" Classic Ripley line. This game look phenomenal. With the addition of Lance Henriksen, it'll make the game even more worthwhile.

Its really great to see him again. The game itself will be cool i hope they'll make a co-op mod

Im looking forward to this, its going to be top notch gaming. Also does anone know whats happening with avp redemption, the animation movie. Its gone very quiet on news with whats happening. Lance is the man by the way.

Anyone find his Twitter account?

I hope you all noticed that when he was doing the voices he was talking about Ripley!!!!  Its good to know she will be mentioned in the game

@Hicks_0998: That WAS him.   :D     ;)  

This is awesome...I LOVE how they are tying in Ripley in some way. Story wise...it seems like this game is what the AVP movies should of been.

Its awesome how the main protagonist in Mass Effect was commander Shepherd and Lance plays Colonel Shepherd in Modern Warfare 2 lol

He is the best. Thank's Lance.

This one's differant to the one in aliensvspredator.net, but its still Awesome !!

so cool, now if they make a avp3 movie based on this game, with this karl bishop weyland, that might work!! the bishop on alien3 was human, he had red blood. so he could be the same man or his son.

Predator had the spear at the end! 4:40 o.O is this only new to me? lol

I like men!!!   :o     :o   I like Lance Henriksen....!!   ;D   He is actor in Aliens,Alien 3 and AVP.

DEFINATELY GETTIN THIS GAME NOW YEE HAH.SO CAMERON COULD STILL BE DOIN AN ALIEN MOVIE BLOODY BRILL.LANCE HAS GOT TOO BE IN IT GREAT ACTORS NEVER GET OLD THEY GET BETTER CHEERS M8   :D  

Nice to see that some great actors acknowledge the importance of video games (Lance Henriksen, Bill Murray etc). They're a bigger production than most motion pictures nowadays. I can already tell that this game is almost exactly what the AvP movies should have been.

was one of those guest stars who did some voice work for the game. He plays Karl Bishop Weyland, the descendant of Weyland-Yutani
