The Future. An old enemy.
The perfect predator. Defeated but not destroyed.
If
only her killer instinct could be reconfigured, re-formed...
Resurrected.
The experiments begin. An unholy combination of human and
alien genetics, made possible by an uneasy alliance between a renegade band of
smugglers and a zealous cadre of scientists and officials. One subject is
familiar -- a woman horrifically linked to the alien species that now elicits so
much scrutiny. Ripley is back and all is not what it seems... Alien Resurrection
stars Sigourney Weaver as Ripley, the role she originated in Ridley Scott's
1979 classic, Alien, and reprised in James Cameron's Aliens (for which she
received an Academy Award nomination) and Alien 3. Two-time Oscar nominee Winona
Ryder also stars as enigmatic mechanic Annalee Call, who may be the instrument
of Ripley's destruction. Co-starring are Ron Perlman, Michael Wincott, Brad
Dourif, Dan Hedaya, J.E. Freeman, Dominique Pinon, Kim Flowers, Gary Dourdan,
Raymond Cruz, and Leland Orser.
The director is Jean-Pierre
Jeunet (whose first interview on the film appeared in SCI-FOX), who helmed (with
Marc Caro) the acclaimed and provocative films Delicatessen and the City of Lost
Children. The screenplay is by Joss Whedon, who is currently enjoying great
success as creator and executive producer of the hit television series "Buffy
the Vampire Slayer." You can begin experiencing the "Resurrection"
this November.
