What a gal! Sigourney Weaver surprised young actors during their high school production of Alien: The Play. 

The actress popped by North Bergen High School in New Jersey where she caught up with the enthusiastic cast. Of course, Sigourney played Ellen Ripley in the film franchise the play is based on.

“I’m so excited to be here. I’m representing all the Alien fans from all over the universe,” she said. “I think what you’re doing is so cool and so important.”

New Jersey state senator Nicholas J. Sacco shared a video of the moment, writing on Twitter: “Sigourney Weaver visiting the NBHS cast and crew at their encore performance of Alien after national media recognition was unbelievable!! #alien #Alien40th.”

YAS!
