Bill Paxton Wants To Battle Aliens in Alien 5?!?
We previously reported that Sigourney Weaver and director Neill Blomkamp are working on Alien 5, but now Bill Paxton Wants To Battle Aliens in Alien 5.
If you remember the movie “Aliens”, Bill Paxton played the memorable role of Private William Hudson , who was assumed dead after Ripley and Corporal Dwayne Hicks fled to survive.

Well CelebNMusic247.com has just got word that NOT only is Private William Hudson (Bill Paxton) reprising his role from the 1986 “Aliens” film, so is Michael Biehn as Corporal Dwayne Hicks.
See Sigourney Weaver revealed that she NEVER liked Alien 3 and the direction of the franchise so she and director Neill Blomkamp are fixing that with Alien 5.
Paxton admitted to Entertainment Weekly that he is not entirely familiar with Blomkamp’s plans for Alien 5, but would be interested in coming back as his Aliens character Private William Hudson.
Bill declared:
“I mean, if you’re going to bring Hicks back, you’ve got to have Hudson.”
Blomkamp has previously described his movie as a direct sequel to Aliens, although he has stressed that it will not ignore events in the later films either.
It sounds like a sequel/prequel or link between Aliens and Alien 3 which is awesome, because we would love to see more of Hudson and Hicks. Alien 3 just seemed like a fast written sequel the ended up being the disappointment of the franchise.
Alien 5 is currently scheduled to premiere in 2016
