Fun fact, her height is one of the reasons she got the role of Ripley. She went to the casting in high heels, towering over Ridley Scott, who cast her on the spot.
I just started reading the book based on the original screenplay for Aliens 3 by William Gibson (father of the cyberpunk genre). It's a shame the movie didn't get made.
EDIT: It's not very long and you can check out the ebook from your local library through Libby. That's what I did. Appreciate your libraries people!

I had no idea Sigourney was almost 6 feet tall!

RIP Bill Paxton
Look into my eye, Hudson!
I didn’t realize Sigourney Weaver was so tall. She’s as tall or taller than all of her male co-stars in this photo.
Heels and being closer to the camera probably help, but she do be tall

I've heard so many good things about this book, I just finished Dune, so I think I'll listen to that this week at work.
