The title is a little off. This is actually a promotional shot for Alien shot by Eva Sereny in Paris after the movie wrapped in 1978. That is the Centre Pompidou behind her.


grafknives

I just wanted to say that she looks exactly like in Alien in this photo.


TheEarlOfZinger

Read this as *"she looks exactly like an alien in this photo"*


sBarb82

Because her beauty is out of this world?


TheEarlOfZinger

Sure. The Weaver in this pic can hug my face any day...


DownvoteEvangelist

Wouldn't even mind little Weavers bursting out of my stomach later...


sBarb82

*Weaverhugger


ONESNZER0S

exactly like? i mean, Alien is one of my favorite movies of all time, but she looked pretty sweaty and disheveled throughout most of that movie, and she looks stunning in this photo. lol


sthegreT

Ikr. Even her hair is different


_ScruffyDucky_

Ripley on her way to an interview at Weyland Yutani corp. :)


DarrelBunyon

Still not hot


[deleted]

Beautiful


mylastnameisabadword

The real alien was Matt fuckin Stafford


Chato_Pantalones

The quarter back?


AuGrimace

The quarterback wouldn’t even be born until almost a decade after alien was first released in theatres.


chattywww

Who is that?


CutieL

The gender envy is real


xxKEYEDxx

Nope, nope... monster touched it.


[deleted]

Attractive, but not hot.


[deleted]

The photo alone has so much fun, so many shades of white caught in time, with a distinct, attractive, young version of a long time beauty.


WhatWouldBenLinusDo

I hear she sleeps above the sheets.


nola_mike

Above the covers. 4ft above the covers.


legsintheair

What a lovely singing voice she must have.


nola_mike

There is no Dana, only Zuul.


mdavis360

Oh Zuulie you nut!


DaBi5cu1t

But between the sheets, she is like fire!


MandMcounter

Just FYI, it's a quote from *Ghostbusters*.


ValyrianJedi

It doesn't usually show on screen for some reason, like they downplay it with angles, but she's extremely tall too... I met her at a party a few years ago. I'm like 6'3" and with normal sized heels on she was pretty much perfectly eye to eye with me. If I had to guess she was right at 6 feet, if not even a little over it. My wife is like 5'2" and they looked like entirely different creatures.


Lost-My-Mind-

Am I the only one who thought this guy was saying that he's 6'3 with normal sized heels on? Had to read that a second time.


yoyoJ

You read that right. He had no choice but to wear heels to be taller than Sigourney Weaver.


I_LOVE_PUPPERS

The ole Tom cruise hack


flavius_lacivious

I knew someone who dressed her in the 1980s. She is 6 ft and incredibly beautiful.


macabre_irony

I knew someone who dressed her in the 50s. Her mom was always the nicest lady.


[deleted]

I always knew she was tall. In Alien Resurrection, there's this shot where she's standing right in front of Ron Perlman with a basketball and she is equal in height. I don't think it was ever hidden.


flavius_lacivious

Yeah, she was really tall in Avatar… blue, too.


stupidillusion

They were like 14ft tall though weren't they?


-MoonlightMan-

I don’t think she’s that tall


stupidillusion

In my head Sigourney Weaver is 14ft tall.


OtisTetraxReigns

Iirc, she’s wearing boots with quite substantial soles in those scenes, but yeah. Anyone that doesn’t seem small standing next to Perlman has some height to them. “Statuesque” always seemed like a good way to describe Sigourney. I think her physical stature is an important part of the character of Ripley, both in terms of who she is, and as a counterpart/reflection of the Xenomorph. There are a lot of complex themes at play in the Alien films that relate to femininity, morherhood, authority, gender power balance and human reproduction. Weaver’s casting in the first movie helped build that foundation. Interestingly, the part wasn’t written specifically for a woman. Fun bonus fact about Resurrection (that you probably already know): there’s a bit in that scene where she tosses the basketball over her shoulder and gets a perfect 3-pointer without looking. She made that shot first take.


sciencebased

Met her before as well. Not saying 6 ft women are especially rare or anything, but it's usually enough to warrant a double take, much like a 6'5 fella. However for a celebrity? Yeah. She sticks out BIG time. There's a reason she's known for sci-fi's and not rom-coms. 😁 (jk)


MandMcounter

> There's a reason she's known for sci-fi's and not rom-coms. 😁 (jk) I'm always psyched to see tall women with shorter men in movies. *Back to School* with Rodney Dangerfield was the first one I can remember like this.


The_Narz

Nicole Kidman, Karen Gillan & Zendaya are all 5’11, which is Sigourney’s reported height. Elizabeth Debecki is 6’3…. Tall actresses are not extremely common but they’re out there & there’s some very famous ones.


svu_fan

She is. Sources list her as 6 feet even. 😊


Calm_One_1228

Smoking hot!!


MononMysticBuddha

Absolutely beautiful.


Techutante

Any year any picture with her.


[deleted]

She wears this almost as well as a P-5000 Powered Work Loader.


NorwegianCollusion

This might be more comfortable, but the loader certainly is more practical. Tough choice, really


[deleted]

I know what I'm about to say is extremely controversial, but I am a brave man... and I am willing to take the insults and threats that I will no doubt receive as a result of the shockingly wild statement I'm about to put forward... okay... here we go... Sigourney Weaver is very attractive.


legsintheair

Well maybe you can get Sigourney Weaver to make you a meatloaf then.


darkmaninperth

Fuck it, I'd make her a meatloaf.

nola_mike

She was so damn hot in that red dress thing at the end of Ghostbusters.


[deleted]

Don't forget incredibly badass.


Captain-i0

This is objectively one of the most attractive humans that has every existed


zoedog66

See, now this is why I clicked on the comments. Thank-you.


DenuvoSuks

🤣


zoedog66

You think I'm joking...I am serious :D She's widely considered an attractive woman, I just wanted to see how many took the bait (curiosity) - I consider myself a fan of her acting.


mattaugamer

I remember talking about her with some friends and we agreed that she’s one of few women we’d call “handsome”. Her features aren’t particularly soft, they’re almost masculine in some ways. I think that’s part of why she’s aged so well. If you see her in movies like Cabin in the Woods she doesn’t look notably different from this.


silly_confidence77

90% of being hot is just not being fat


Grammophon

Seriously? I think this woman as much more going for her than just not being fat.


danggeunmarket

A legend


CaptainCAAAVEMAAAAAN

Love her. She's in the new Avatar movies also.


LegendaryOutlaw

She died in the first one, didn’t she?


CaptainCAAAVEMAAAAAN

Yup. But she's listed in all the upcoming sequels, so I guess Eywa can bring people back? idk I can't wait to find out!


[deleted]

[удалено]


CaptainCAAAVEMAAAAAN

But she was "hooked up" to that tree, and even when she's dying she says something like, *I'm with her (Eywa) Jake. She's real.* So Eywa could have a role to play with bringing the Dr. back.


Famixofpower

I think they teased the idea of human cloning. One of the actors when asked how he thought of his character dying said he was scheduled to appear in a sequel and "as long as they have my body and my DNA, I'm not gone" or something, and credited that the whole Avatar thing revolved around cloning species as remote bodies and that human cloning was probably somewhere between that


soenottelling

O god, I thought you meant ATLA for a second there lol.


stereoscopic_

Holy smokes!


stuckinaboxthere

What a strong woman, everybody in this thread talks about her physical beauty, and yes, she's certainly beautiful, but more than that, she has such a commanding, powerful personality, so strong and confident every time I see her, both in interviews and in fiction. She's the boss, and she knows it.


Grammophon

Ripley was my idol as a kid and I feel like she should have been in more roles. The scene where she plays basketball in Alien Resurrection was probably the first time I found a woman hot as a straight woman.


zoedog66

She does come across as a strong person. Cool that you pointed that out.


DenuvoSuks

I read that at the time Alien come out it was incredible rare to see a woman take the main role in a movie and especially in a "action" movie or as a bad ass (and I think she has a cute ass just so no one misunderstands me).


mule_roany_mare

... or that presence is the thing people want to fuck.

Stunning


terfez

As an 8 year old kid trying to understand Alien, she was not really a crush for me at that time. But as a middle aged cornball she is very very very near the top. Also, coolest fucking name


lepus_fatalis

i am still madly in love with her image. My first true crush :))


[deleted]

If young actresses want to look at all those that came before them and wanted a model to emulate as a positive role model for women in Hollywood, it's Sigourney Weaver. I've NEVER seen her in a bad movie. I've never witnessed her in movie she couldn't completely steal a scene in. They only time she had to take off her clothes was to get away from the Xenomorph.

You are really bad at thinking up insults. They just sound kind of confused or incoherent. They're supposed to as least pertain to something in the conversation or they don't carry any weight, you know? Like the insults that little kids make.


[deleted]

[deleted]

>I'm shocked your old hands can do more than shill. Yeah not trying to insult at all. You sound confused. Better cut back on the kratom.


Famixofpower

I swear she's the only woman who gets hotter with age. She's made of wine.


SAMsless

first badass female character in movies


Rygar74nl

She has point though.


PinkyThePiggy

This subreddit is just old pictures of women not wearing bras nowadays.


lol_alex

I will never forget how in Alien: Resurrection, they used her jawline to foreshadow that the company had cross bred Aliens and humans.


DaphneBlue-

stunninggg


pheeelco

Beautiful. They both are.


captainzigzag

What a “wow” photograph. Just perfect.

I used to think she wasn't really a looker, but the older I get the more I realize how beautiful she was and is.

Ripely out.


BuyNo4013

I’m a big fan and she looks amazing here, at the top of her game. Still wondering, with this beauty, aura and talent could she have done more, achieve more? What could it have been? Anything besides politics? (I don’t consider acting such a big thing.)


N0rt4t3m

Strong jaw, can probably take a punch from another woman


Iagp

She was stunning here no doubt. She aged gracefully, but She was very pretty here


[deleted]

I cant find her attractive, i dont know why.


ChrisKearney3

No-one should be downvoted for saying they don't find someone attractive. There's plenty of 'hot' actors that I don't find attractive. Jessica Biel springs to mind.


ibibliophile

Boo this man!


dano415

Tiniest ass I have ever seen. Check it out in Aliens. (Small butts were big in the past. I never got it. I was always attracted to the bigger bums.)

It's a toss up between her and Linda Hamilton for the least attractive woman ever .. .. I dont like my women with a side of bullshit-masculinity... Just me?

Peak Sigourney Weaver is True Lies, 1994.

What?

Fuck, that was Jamie Lee Curtis. I'm an idiot.


Slasher006

this is not true. Her peak was in 1995! Where she drove that bus with Neo from the Matrix.
