Alien At 40: Ridley Scott’s Original Storyboards

The Screaming Never Stopped

2019 is the 40th anniversary of Ridley Scott’s seminal Alien and here’s a few of his original storyboards from the film found on Twitter…

In deep space, the crew of the commercial starship Nostromo is awakened from their cryo-sleep capsules halfway through their journey home to investigate a distress call from an alien vessel. The terror begins when the crew encounters a nest of eggs inside the alien ship. An organism from inside an egg leaps out and attaches itself to one of the crew, causing him to fall into a coma. Alien was directed by Ridley Scott and stars Sigourney Weaver, Ian Holm, John Hurt and Harry Dean Stanton
