Sigourney Weaver has addressed whether she would return to the role of Ellen Ripley in the Alien franchise.

"I feel like she’s never far away from me, but on the other hand I have yet to read a script that said 'you have got to do this'," Weaver told Deadline. "So for me, she is in this other dimension, safe from the Alien for the time being."
