And not the ones she got in the latter two films.

And we also may learn more about the aliens she has been battling all these years.
(Now theres a sentence thatll disrupt your timeline.)
Heres what else she had to say about Ripleys next appearance:
Well, we have a great script.
Fox asked us to delay so Ridley Scott could shoot his [second]Prometheusmovie.
That was too bad because we would have already done it by now, she says.
Now that were waiting for that, I havea couple ofAvatarsto do and Neill hasTheGone World, Weaver says.
So well have to see what happens when we get back, when those projects are over.
Either way, she sounds determined to revisit Ellen Ripley.
That means resolution not that Ripley will necessarily die.
(Note that shes died before, and that obviously didnt end anything.)
I hope well do it.
After teaming up on 2014sChappie, Weaver also seems eager to join forces again with Blomkamp.
But you never know in this crazy business.
In any case, [theAlienssequel] there and waiting for us.
But it will be worth the wait when we finally get to it.
I think Fincher was fine with that.
Each director kind of wanted to create a whole new set of circumstances.
In this case, it picks up, it follows directly the circumstances of Jim CameronsAliens.
For those looking forward to seeing that story realized in a few years, Weaver has encouraging words.
I hope it wont be a few.
I hope itll be acouple.
