Trivia:
|
- Angelina Jolie was originally approached to play Winona Ryder's role
- The androids' names in the alien films follow a pattern-in alien, the name is Ash; in aliens it's Bishop; and the third android in alien resurrection is Call - (abc).
- Jean-Pierre Jeunet wanted to have a scene where a mosquito stings Ripley, then vanishes into smoke because of her acid blood. Eventually, he left the idea after the SFX team told him how much it would cost.
- The first draft of the script contained an action sequence that took place in a garden contained within the spaceship "Auriga," with Ripley driving an electrically-powered jeep to avoid aliens attacking from all sides. This was to take place after the scene in the chapel but before the sequence where the Newborn is introduced. The sequence was cut due largely to budget constraints.
- Leland Orser has "Crazed convulsions" when the Alien is about to burst out of his chest, similar to what his characters portrayed in Se7en and Resurrection.
