Sigourney Weaver’s iconic hero Ellen Ripley gears up and arms herself against the terror of Xenomorph menace in Alien art. The star has portrayed the former freight craft crew member turned sole survivor and Xenomorph-killing civilian adviser to the Colonial Marines in Ridley Scott’s 1979 sci-fi horror hit. Weaver portrayed the character in three following sequels, as the Xenomorph and the corporate interests that hope to claim them expand across the cosmos, bringing new, deadly alien breeds into even deadlier environments in the far future.
