Audible is bringing William Gibson’s uncovered Alien III script to life in audio for the first time, to mark the 40th Anniversary of the birth of the Alien franchise.

Alongside a full cast, Michael Biehn and Lance Henriksen reprise their iconic roles as Corporal Hicks and Bishop from the 1986 film Aliens.

Father of cyberpunk William Gibson’s original script for Alien III, written in 1987 as a sequel to Aliens, never made it to our screens, although it went on to achieve cult status among fans as the third instalment that might have been after being leaked online.

This terrifying, cinematic multicast dramatisation - directed by the multi-award-winning Dirk Maggs - is the chance to experience William Gibson’s untold story and its terrifying, claustrophobic and dark encounters between humans and aliens, as a completely immersive audio experience.

The story begins with the Sulaco on its return journey from LV-426. On board the military ship are the cryogenically frozen skeleton crew of that film’s survivors: Ripley, Hicks, Newt and Bishop.

We travel aboard and hear an alarm blare. Our heroes are no longer alone....

Starring: Tom Alexander, Barbara Barnes, Michael Biehn, Cliff Chapman, Samantha Coughlan, Ben Cura, Dar Dash, Harry Ditson, Mairead Doherty, Lance Henriksen, Graham Hoadly, Lorelei King, Laurel Lefkow, Martin McDougall, Sarah Pitard, Michael Roberts, David Seddon, Andrew James Spooner, Siri Steinmo, Dai Tabuchi, Keith Wickham, Rebecca Yeo.

"The production is absolutely stellar; it is a full-on full-cast dramatic presentation, with sound effects and the smell of buttered popcorn in the air. The two hour length and pacing is the same as a motion picture; so this is as close as we're ever going to get to the ALIEN III that might have been."

About the Performer

Michael Connell Biehn was born on July 31, 1956 in Anniston, Alabama, to Marcia (Connell) and Don Biehn, a lawyer. He grew up in Lincoln, Nebraska, and at age 14 moved with his family to Lake Havasu, Arizona, where he won a drama scholarship to the University of Arizona. He left prematurely two years later to pursue an acting career in Hollywood. His first big role was as a psychotic fan stalking Lauren Bacall in The Fan (1981), and later appeared in The Lords of Discipline (1983). He hit the big time when he was cast as Kyle Reese, the man sent back through time to stop Arnold Schwarzenegger in James Cameron’s The Terminator (1984). This established a good working relationship with Cameron, a relationship that should have catapulted Biehn to international stardom. He starred in Cameron’s subsequent films, Aliens (1986) and The Abyss (1989), the latter a standout performance as unstable Navy SEAL officer Lt. Hiram Coffey. In the 90s, he starred in films like Navy Seals (1990), K2 (1991), and was particularly memorable as Johnny Ringo in Tombstone (1993). Biehn is married to Jennifer Blanc Biehn and the father of five sons. He made his directorial debut with The Victim starring himself and Jennifer. They started their company Blanc Biehn productions once The Victim was released by Starz/ Anchor Bay. They continue to make movies and give lots of new talent a creative say in filmmaking.

Loved the production and performances but the story is pretty non-existent and the ending flaps around like a xenomorph clinging to an evacuating airlock. Also I hated the new alien.

Didn’t really work for me

Very interesting look at what could have been. Story and characters being much more flushed out in a setting that makes sense. The Sulaco has more screen time, the colonial marines has more depth despite there being only Hicks. And the politics of space get explored. While it probably wouldn't have been as highly rated as Alien or Aliens, It would have defiantly satisfied people who wanted to see more of the Alien universe.

Alien 3... GOOD?!

I got this as a freebie. Maybe I'm biased because alien books aren't my go-to for reading/listening, but nonetheless, it was good. The narration was absolutely phenomenal with extra noises just like I was watching a movie with my eyes closed lol
There weren't any surprises or unique twists that could have possibly added to the story but it's a short story, so that probably would have been difficult.
Overall, good read if you like fiction, but I probably wouldn't listen again if I knew how the story went.

Fantastic narration. Typical alien plot.

A tremendous effort by a talented cast, including Michael Biehn and Lance Henriksen returning from Aliens, brings William Gibson's unused masterpiece to life!

The Alien III that never was!

This was great, very much in the original Aliens fashion. Team of rejects fight off aliens while everything - people, government, space station conspires against them. Well done and well read - this would have been a MUCH better Alien 3

Should have used this script!

This was my introduction to to the Alien series; I had not listened to any other book prior to this. The recording quality, audio performances, and FX were all excellent. I recommend this highly!

Great listen with incredible performances!

After hearing this novel that actually has no space for fear to build.... I had come to the conclusion that the fans made this script to be a life saver for the series but in fact is quite the opposite... this screenplay is an Anchor... too much explanation and forced findings and not enough mystery.... it was my first purchase here the sound quality is above the line... Lance Henriksen is a very good actor... some of his stress notes made the show! To the rest of the cast a big thank you! But even a good cast can not save a mediocre script! By all means buy it... it solves forever the alien3 conundrum!

David Fincher made the best Alien 3 after all!
