Quick Summary

Alien 3 is a 1992 science-fiction film directed by David Fincher. It is part of the Alien film series, which began with Ridley Scott's Alien in 1979. The film stars Sigourney Weaver, reprising her role as Ellen Ripley.12

Alien 3 had a difficult production and was not well-received critically or commercially. Fincher's experience with this film led him to avoid large-scale franchises for his subsequent projects. The Alien franchise includes sequels such as Aliens (1986) and Alien Resurrection (1997), as well as prequels like Prometheus (2012) and Alien: Covenant (2017).21
