Sigourney Weaver Says ‘Ship Has Sailed’ on Fifth ‘Alien’ Movie

[Oasis Nadrama]

Wow, really?    I had no idea people were still bitter over this. I grew up with these movies, I was a kid when I first saw Hicks and Newt's bodies at the beginning of Alien 3, it's always just been "the way things are" for me...

[BlueMarsalis79]

Yeah, eventually that will be it. Eventually they will all be dead.

Did Dark Fate make a stack?

I think the attractiveness of geriatrics returning to roles from thirty years ago might be somewhat overestimated by the fans.

The previous two movies in that trilogy made a billion even without the original cast returning, though. People were just turning up for those movies regardless.

True. True. Certainly wasn't a detriment though.

Hope we get an alien 5 one day. We dont need Ripley in it, she's done. So many directions they can go.in if they wish.

What even is an "Alien 5" sans Ripley at this rate? We've gotten three Alien films since Sigourney's last appearance. Are those not "Alien 5," "6," and "7," at the end of the day?

Or do you specifically mean one chronologically taking place after Resurrection (which is something I would be very down for)?

Alien5 but actually 3 (this time with feeling).

I hope Hill and Giler's Alien 5 treatment makes it out into the wild one day. It would be fascinating to see what two of the original architects came up with.

Chronologically post alien resurrection
. Different cast, no WY as that's gone at this stage. I'd love to see that.
