Carrie Henn | Teacher
It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to suggest that Aliens, directed by James Cameron, is one of the best sci-fi flicks of all time. Although producers retained the original concepts and characters from the first movie, Cameron’s approach was somewhat different from Ridley Scott’s. When viewed in isolation, it’s a wildly unpredictable ride that’s beautifully crafted and executed.
Sigourney Weaver, Michael Biehn, and Lance Henriksen, and a young actress named Carrie Henn gave outstanding performances in this production. She was interviewed several times after the massive success of Aliens, and each time she said that she had no plans to work again. Carrie kept her word, and she didn’t appear on screen again for a long time. She has lived an almost Hollywood-free life, except for sporadic involvement from the Sci-Fi world. In 2006, she made her last public appearance at the 20th Anniversary screening of Aliens in Los Angeles. She graduated from college with a bachelor’s degree in liberal studies and child development in 2000 and now works as an instructor in Atwater, California.
