Alien 3: Sigourney Weaver Reflects on Controversial David Fincher Sequel
The Alien series remains robust following the launch of Alien: Romulus, however, when looking at its 45-year, six-film journey, one movie stands out as particularly contentious. That’s right, I’m talking about 1992’s Alien 3. This third chapter in the saga, Alien 3, saw Sigourney Weaver reappear as Ellen Ripley and was David Fincher’s debut in feature film direction. Unfortunately, the production process was fraught with difficulties, and even Fincher himself has since distanced himself from the movie. Interestingly, Weaver recently discussed the sequel, expressing her perception that Fincher didn’t receive adequate studio backing.
