The 2024Alienmovie introduced audiences to two new great characters with Cailee Spaeny’s Rain and David Jonsson’s Andy.
Like most movies in the franchise, the main characters survive and begin a journey to a new location.
That hasn’t always been assured with theAlienfranchise, but it is now.
That left Ridley Scott with the challenge of introducing new characters for audiences to become invested in.
That wasn’t the first time that theAlienfranchise killed off characters expected to be leading parts in a sequel.
The beginning ofAlien 3famously killed Newt and Hicks, leaving Ripley alone once again.
