"BELIEVE IT OR NOT - When last seen in "Alien" (1979), chief operating officer Ripley (Sigourney Weaver) was playing Sleeping Beauty in the Nostromos escape pod. According to the next script, she'll awaken from hibernation some 50 years later, along with Jonesy the cat, in the tentatively titled "Aliens", the long-awaited 20th Century Fox sequel (written and directed by James Cameron) to begin filming this fall in London. But will anyone believe her story? Discovered by the crew of a salvage ship, Ripley's erratic behaviour - and the mysterious deaths of her fellow crew members (in the first film) - leads to her inquisition. The trial, in turn, results in a return visit to the decidedly strange planet that spawned the alien monster. There, the explorers discover a slew of aliens, of various forms, including close look-alikes of the original ravenous fellow. - From Pat H. Broeske"
