What role Cameron will actually take in the new adventures of Ellen Ripley is undetermined (will he write, produce...direct!?), but Big Jim is definitely interested and the prospect of the Aliens director collaberating with origional helmer Scott will make fans drool as much as the alien creatures themselves. It seems the Titanic director was also approached by Weaver, who is either desperate to revisit the character of Ripley in order to fulfill her artistic needs...or fancies pocketing an expected $20 million for another outing.
