Any Lance Henriksen fans?
Edited on Tue Aug-10-04 09:33 AM by khephra


He's the main reason I'm seeing Aliens vs Predators.

If there's one face people will recognise amongst the cast of unknowns in "Alien vs. Predator", it's Lance Henriksen. The only returning star from one of the franchises, Henriksen is best known for his work as the android Bishop in 1986's "Aliens" and reprised a human version of the role in "Alien 3". Other credits include such films as "Close Encounters of the Third Kind", "Scream 3", "Near Dark" and the cult hit series "Millenium".

In AVP, he plays Charles Weyland, a billionaire industrialist and head of Weyland Enterprises (those who know their "Alien" mythology will be familiar with the name). His character sets events in motion by organising and funding the expedition. During a break on-set in Prague late last year, Lance took time out for a smoke and a quick interview:

3. Yeah
I enjoyed that show too...I wonder if they'll do a movie, I know there was talk about it...

I saw him the other day in a REALLY bad Sci Fi channel original movie. He played a police Chief and it was w/ Kevin Dylan (sp) and was about vampires...Awful movie, but Lance was ok in it, though it wasn't one of his better roles, although I'm sure he was hampered by the awful script and directing and just about everything else in that travesty...

5. I've always like him.
I think he's handsome in a weather, craggy sort of way. The kind of guy I imagine making his home in the desert. And he has a sexy voice.

14. "Stone Cold" is a great, lost B-movie (maybe "C" movie) classic
He plays "Chains," the leader of a biker gang called "The Brotherhood." Brian Bosworth is the undercover cop who brings him down. It's just a solid hour and a half of killer bad (but "good" bad) moviemaking.

"Going undercover to infiltrate an outlaw biker gang, a cop poses as an ex-con biker to win the trust of the diabolical gang leader. As a member of the gang he learns that they're plotting a paramilitary assault on the state capitol to rescue a gang member sentenced to execution. Now he's up against the gang all alone."
