On the final episode of our month of spooky films, we’re looking at Ridley Scott’s classic sci-fi horror Alien! Which two actors hot off Star Wars almost landed roles? Which Oscar-winner was offered Captain Dallas, but only wanted to play the alien? And could Ash have been a more obviously evil robot? Also – move over Grizabella, the Xenomorph is coming to the Great White Way!

 

Alien stars Sigourney Weaver, Tom Skerritt, Yaphet Kotto, John Hurt, Veronica Cartwright, Harry Dean Stanton, Ian Holm, and Bolaji Badejo; directed by Ridley Scott
