“You’ll never watch Aliens the same way again.” That’s the promise of upcoming documentary Aliens Expanded, which aims to be the ultimate companion piece to the 1986 classic.

Bloody Disgusting has exclusively learned this week that a brand new, extended interview with James Cameron heads up the revolutionary documentary experience Aliens Expanded!

Helmed by the creators of ‘In Search of Darkness’, Aliens Expanded brings fans on an unparalleled journey into the extraordinary cinematic legacy of the greatest sequel of all time – Cameron’s 1986 genre masterpiece Aliens. Coupled with interviews with Michael Biehn (as Corporal Hicks), Lance Henriksen (as Bishop) and many more cast and crew, Aliens Expanded is a first-of-its kind scene-by-scene analysis of Aliens with James Cameron leading the conversation.

Pre-sale of Aliens Expanded opens on April 9, 2024 and until May 5, 2024.

Writer and director Ian Nathan, author of Alien Vault and James Cameron: A Retrospective, teams up with the award-winning CREATORVC to explore Cameron’s finest film to date. The ultimate celebration of a classic, the film is centered on an in-depth analysis as well as a wealth of memories, stories, facts, revelations, never-before-heard stories from set and discussion over the massive cultural impact the film had and still has today.

“This is the opportunity of a lifetime,” says writer and director Ian Nathan. “I have been gripped by Aliens from the day I saw it and it has never let me go. I delved for the roots of what makes it so addictive. With a wealth of incredible, fresh insight from cast and crew, as well as experts and critics, and above all from the fans, I think this is the definitive statement on one of the greatest films of all time.”

Made by fans for fans, Aliens Expanded supporters can be a part of history-in-the-making with pre-order packages made available at www.aliens-expanded.com.
