Aliens marks anniversary with proposal
FILMMAKER James Cameron and Hollywood star Sigourney Weaver were surprised by a fan proposing to his girlfriend as they celebrated the 30th anniversary of sci-fi classic Aliens on Saturday.
The pair were swapping behind-the-scenes anecdotes at San Diego ComicCon when the man got down on one knee during the audience Q&A section and popped the question.
The lucky lady said yes, prompting Cameron, 61, to remark: “May you be happy and have many spawn.”
Cameron and Weaver, 66, were joined by other cast members including Lance Henriksen, Paul Reiser and Bill Paxton as well as producer Gale Anne Hurd.
The panel was asked for details of progress on an upcoming fifth Alien film to be made by District9 and Elysium director Neill Blomkamp.
Although it has not been officially announced, Blomkamp himself has given interviews confirming that he plans at least one sequel with Weaver in the lead role. Aliens
