Cameron Loved Blomkamp’s ALIEN 5 Idea

Sigourney Weaver

Neill Blomkamp’s Alien 5 sounded like quite possibly be one of the coolest movies ever. But it didn’t happen. However, if it helps Blomkamp’s ego, at least James Cameron liked his idea.

We almost started to do [Alien 5] when I was working with James Cameron,” Franchise star Sigourney Weaver told THR. “But by the time we were put off by Fox, Neill had gotten so many jobs that we’d have to wait probably. I’m busy doing Avatar 4 and 5. I love working with Neill and I think he’d do a terrific job, and James Cameron really thinks it’s a great idea, so you never know. Right now, I think Neill’s got like three projects going at once.”

Considering Blumhouse’s Halloween just made a great case for bringing back a franchise’s main star, let’s hope the powers that be at Fox that notice and bring Weaver back for their next Alien flick – whatever that may be.
