how old was sigourney weaver in alien
Sigourney Weaver claims Alien bosses only cast woman in lead role so audiences would be more shocked when she survived. While she is one of her generationâs most respected actresses, Sigourney Weaver has never been known for her Hollywood glamour. But even in the image-obsessed world of showbusiness, the 65-year-old is glad she did not look the same as other prim, young ingenues as she does not think her career would have been as successful.
