NYCC 2025 RECAP: Sigourney Weaver’s ALIEN 5 Update! (Walter Hill Ripley Script & Exhibits) | Ep218

While no one heard Ellen Ripley scream in space, the NYCC 2025 crowds were shrieking with delight for Sigourney Weaver! We recap the massive #Alien and #Avatar panel where Weaver dropped a HUGE revelation: Writer-Director Walter Hill is working on an Alien 5 script that brings Ripley back! She confirmed meeting with Disney executives about Hill's "extraordinary" 50-page #Alien5 story, which she says would be a "very different kind of Alien" and not just "running around airshafts." We break down every detail. Plus, we hear great behind-the-scenes stories from her original Alien co-star, Veronica Cartwright, about the chestburster scene! Beyond the Alien panel, we cover the rest of our New York Comic Con experience, including: • Weaver’s update on the slim chances of Galaxy Quest 2 without Alan Rickman. • Her praise for the new FX series Alien: Earth. • Her discussion about her time on the set of the upcoming Mandalorian and Grogu movie •  A tour of the best NYCC exhibits, exclusives, and mind-blowing cosplayers! 00:00:00 - Introduction to Five Idiots Talking Toys & New York City Comic Con 00:01:56 - Charles's Comic Con Invitation Controversy 00:06:04 - Initial Impressions of New York Comic Con 00:07:39 - Motivation for Attending NYCC 00:11:07 - Brandon's Journey to Comic Con and the Alien Panel 00:14:09 - The Alien Panel Highlights and Sigourney Weaver's Career 00:18:47 - Photo Opportunity Experience at Comic Con 00:20:10 - Navigating the Crowds and Booths at Comic Con 00:23:00 - Challenges with Booth Organization and Discovering Toy Vendors 00:25:05 - Unexpected Encounter with a friend 00:26:40 - Post-Comic Con Socializing and Humorous Moments 00:27:10 - Hasbro and NECA Booths at Comic Con 00:30:35 - Golden Auctions and the "King of Collectibles" Show 00:32:22 - Final Thoughts on Comic Con and Future Plans #NYCC2025 #NewYorkComicCon #NYCCRecap #ComicCon2025 #NYCCPanel #NYCCVlog #JavitsCenter #Cosplay #NYCCCosplay #BestCosplay #SigourneyWeaver #Alien #Aliens #EllenRipley #WalterHill #RipleyReturn #AlienScript #Avatar #Avatar3 #GalaxyQuest #VeronicaCartwright #AlienEarth #AlienCovenant #SciFiNews #MovieNews #ConLife #PopCulture #GeekOut #ToyCollecting #Mandalorian #Grogu #toycollecting #hasbro #neca #Ghostbusters 🫶 Support our #podcast through Patreon, and get early access to #toycollection previews, exclusive #starwarsactionfigures video content & our episodes before the public:   / fiveidiotstalkingtoys   Get all the links (FITT socials, collectibles, merch, giveaways): http://fiveidiotstalkingtoys.com/ 👕 FITT Merch Shop ~ T-Shirts, Hoodies, Mugs, Hats, Stickers & more for #toycollectors!
