Sigourney Weaver looks glamorous in a black sequinned outfit as she attends the Venice Film Festival premiere of Beetlejuice 2 - after breaking down in tears during press conference


Sigourney Weaver looked glamorous in an all-black ensemble as she attended the Beetlejuice 2 premiere during Venice Film Festival on Wednesday evening, after breaking down in tears earlier the same day.

Weaver is being awarded the Golden Lion by the Venice Film Festival, its highest honour, tonight after a career which has seen her play Ripley in the Alien movies, plus appear in Ghostbusters, Avatar, Working Girl and many more. She played the iconic heroine in the sci-fi series from the 1979 original to its fourth installment 'Alien: Resurrection' in 1997 and has now revealed she hasn't completely closed the door on reprising her role in a future flick, even if she feels it is unlikely. When quizzed on the latest entry into the franchise 'Alien: Romulus' - which stars Cailee Spaeny, Isabela Merced, Archie Renaux and Aileen Wu - Weaver revealed 'there wasn't a discussion' about Ripley being a part of the movie, but stressed she wishes the cast 'all the best for it'.
