Ripley Returns: ‘Alien’ Star Sigourney Weaver Says She’s Read 50 Pages of a New Sequel

Sigourney Weaver’s “Alien” journey might not be over.

During a New York Comic Con panel, the actress let slip that Walter Hill, one of the producers on the original film and a series mainstay, has written a sequel script. And not only that – but Weaver has read it. Disney has also confirmed that the new film is in development.

“Walter Hill is a very good friend of mine, and he wrote 50 pages where Ripley would be now, and they are quite extraordinary. I don’t know if it’s going to happen, but I have had a meeting with Fox, Disney, or whoever it is now,” Weaver told the Nycc crowd on Friday.
