A panel held in honor of the 30th anniversary of James Cameron’s Aliens has been held at the San Diego Comic Con and featured a large part of the cast as well as Cameron himself and producer Gale Anne Hurd. It was an opportunity for all of them to speak about the film and its legacy as well as a chance for fans of the film to ask the stars their burning questions.
One question directed to Sigourney Weaver, aka “Ellen Ripley”, was regarding the status of Neill Blomkamp’s Alien film, which she explained might still be in the works after everyone has finished the projects they’re currently attached to. However, she gave no certainties.
Speaking on the script of Blomkamp’s film, she called it incredible and said that it will give, “…the fans everything they’re looking for.”
On a side note, Cameron spoke about the relationship between Hicks and Ripley, saying that he thought the two might’ve had some kind of future, “…if Fincher hadn’t killed him off.” Perhaps we’ll see that relationship materialize if Blomkamp’s film ever happens?
