If Sigourney Weaver turned down the role of either alien 5 or 6
_Zwecky_, Xenomorph, 18 years ago
If Sigourney Weaver turned down the role of either alien 5 or 6 would they cut out the character Ripley from the script or would they get another actor to play Ripley?

It's unlikely that they'll ever make an Alien 5 or 6. Ressurection didn't leave any place for continuation (mostly because it ruined the ripley storyline) And Sigourney's age puts another problem to the idea, and without Ripley, the movies would be nowhere near as successful as the previous ones. Too many complications to bother, probably.

Dang, ripley is about 60 now? well i guess it would make since, but if she could still play ripley just as good or better than she used to then i dont see why they wouldnt take her.

Fox probably wouldnt replace the character, if she turned down the role. Because 1. No one can pull of Ripley except Weaver, and 2. Because all the fans would be really pissed. If they do a new Alien movie, they may introduce a new "sidekick" type character, like in the past Alien movies. That character my possibly replace Weaver if they ever do future movies.

I agree with Bio_hazard, but I don't know. I doubt there will be any more if AVP2 is as bad as people think.

they would int possibly consider weaver for ailen 5 pr 6 cos she is about 60 or som in like that by the way that wasnt meant to be mean if it did
_Zwecky_, Xenomorph, 18 years ago
Coz I read somewhere that she was going to consider being apart of one of the new alien movies, even though she is pretty old. But even if she doesn't, where there still be a Ripley character played by another actor?

Yeah but I still think there will be another Alien movie because here in Australia there is a news show called "Today" and Weaver went on the news show talking about the proposition of the new alien movie and how she may be staring in it, but I didn't get to see all of it coz I had to go to school :(
But the new movie wouldn't nesecarilly need to follow on from the last movie because it was so cr@p.

yeah they could do like a prequel instead of a sequel but i would rather see a sequel
Bio_Hazard_13, Xenomorph, 18 years ago
The thought of a prequel entered my mind, but the first Alien is sooo good I would rather them do a sequal like you said. And not ruin the 1st Alien for me. About the whole daughter thing, if you remember Ripley had a daughter, but she died with no kids while Ripley was floating around in space at the beginning of Aliens. So they may not put the son/daughter thing in.

I think they may have an entirely different hero and have Ripley as some adviser to the new hero for half of the movie, then have her killed off towards the end of the movie.
Unknown, Xenomorph, 18 years ago
Or they could 'pull a hicks' on her. You know, have her fall into a jet turbine or someing at the beginning of the movie.

have you seen her though? Sigourney looks great for her age, she could easily pull it off. And just to let you know, she was on an interview on TV a few nites ago and mentioned the fact she is STILL in talks with both Ridley Scott and James Cameron about doing one last ALien film where Ripley Travels to the Alien homeworld and destroys the species once and for all......
Keep your ears open guys, we may get some good news yet.....

Giger Drone, the whole thing with Ripley's daughter couldn't work, as it was mentioned in the special edition of Aliens that Ripley's daughter had died in the time Ripley had been drifting in the nostromo post-Alien.
Admittedly, Sigourney Weaver still looks good for her age, so she could possibly pull off the Ripley character one last time, although even back in resurrection in '97 she was looking a little seasoned. The alien movies wouldn't be the same without her though.

Well if they did bring weaver back, they'd easily be able to make some excuse for her age, I guess, like the whole 'growth acceleration' idea that was used in star wars, that could be an unexpected effect of the cloning. (cause remember people, she IS a clone in the story)
