I like the idea of Copley being in it, my niggling doubts surround the fact he's yet to show he can play a role suitable to a horror film.

That said, he really was amazing in Chappie, so I'm sure he could pull it off.

I dunno, Kruger would be pretty scary to be around.

I think he could be good, but it would have to be a careful balance.  I don't need Alien 5 to become a farce or a comical film.  I have a feeling I would be waiting the whole film for him to "Fokken Aliens!" or something.  An Alien film needs to take itself seriously.

Tough little S.O.B.

He and Leland Orser could have a panic competition.

THIS made me decide I don't want him in the movie.

As long as he's not doing a pantomime of Wikus, I think it'll be fine.

I really dont want him in it, its not that hes a bad actor i just dont see him in an alien film. i think it would be a really bad idea

If nothing else, the guy is a chameleon. Based just on Blomkamp's films, Copley can take a huge variety of charger types and knock them out of the park.

I honestly didn't know the bloke in Elysium was this guy. Really transformed for that role or it was just smoke and mirrors but I could not tell that guy was the same guy in District 9.

Even before Blomkamp had this opportunity I thought Copley would be great in an ALIEN film. I don't think he should have the lead role but definitely a strong supporting one.

I got nothing against Copley, but he's attached to Blomkamp like Depp is to Burton, i see Copley playing some form of bad guy role as a way of shoehorning him in; but props to him for realising they'll go their seperate ways soon enough.

The man is a fantastic actor, he's a lot like Thomas Jane to me in the sense that I never know its him until halfway through the movie. In my mind he could play any of those roles perfectly, but after Elysium I think I'd want to see him as a Marine or Merc, if those aren't in the film though then I think scientist would fit him well.

You know he could be the new Hudson?  Can you picture Copley panicky and twitchy?

not in a way that doesnt come off as annoying, Hudson/bill paxton will never be replaced

and no alien motion capture
