The Alien franchise may be more focused on the Prometheus world for the time being, but Sigourney Weaver is still eyeing a return to the classic series. During a recent panel at The Hero Complex Film Festival, Weaver reflected on her time as the iconic Ellen Ripley, who is easily the most iconic action movie heroine in film history. But even she knows there is more story left to be told, and when the subject of another Alien came up, Weaver responded by saying (via Collider):

None

Obviously this statement is nothing official, but the current trend in Hollywood is franchise revivals with classic casts, such as J.J. Abrams' Star Wars. Ridley Scott may be tied up with Prometheus and a Blade Runner sequel, but it wouldn’t be a stretch for someone to come along and give us more Alien movies. At least we know that Weaver is on board if it ever happens.
