Mary Elizabeth Winstead will play a lethal murderer in the forthcoming Netflix action-thriller Kate. After sighted some first look photos of Kate, admirers are getting some solemn Ellen Ripley senses. Formerly the character was played by Sigourney Weaver in the first four Alien films. Ripley is one of the most iconic characters in filmmaking history and it’s nearly inconceivable to depict anybody else in the role. Even so, the Kate pictures have left many persuaded that Winstead fits the poster for a possible Alien re-creation.In the meantime, other admirers would like to see the Alien endurance have Weaver as a portion of the world by in its place having Winstead instead playing Amanda Ripley, Ellen’s daughter who works as the playable character in the successful game Alien: Isolation.
What did the writer say?
The writer Ethan Anderson tweeted that he knows it would be a lethargic method to do an Alien follow-up that perhaps wouldn’t dig with the mythos, but Mary Elizabeth Winstead as the daughter of Ellen Ripley would be remarkable.

Is there any plan to develop an Alien Remake?
As of now, there are no strategies to progress an Alien remake with another actress in Ellen Ripley’s role. The same can be assumed for an Alien: Isolation film about her daughter Amanda. It doesn’t mean that there’s no opportunitythat such anentity could occur with the future of the franchise enduringindeterminate. There have long been rumors of Weaver returning as Ripley in an Alien V. Ridley Scott has also vocalized about making another Alien prelude, which could supposedlycomprise someone like Winstead as a younger Ripley.The prospect of Alien will clarify soon enough, but until then, admirers can check out Winstead pleasing on another badass role by seeing the forthcomingfilm Kate, due to reach on Netflix.

I still hold the idea that if an 'Alien' remake was made, Mary Elizabeth Winstead would be the perfect Ripley https://t.co/Gt47kaF5z3

So if they rebooted the Alien franchise with a new Ellen Ripley I elect Mary Elizabeth Winstead. #IWouldntBeMad https://t.co/W2GDrWhKZR

Looking at these still shots of Mary Elizabeth Winstead's new movie KATE makes me hope she's the new lead in an Alien film.
She could perfectly play Amanda Ripley or a new wholly original characters for the Alien franchise. pic.twitter.com/EnMnBCRzjG

I know it would be a lazy way to do an #Alien sequel that probably wouldn’t jibe with the mythology, but Mary Elizabeth Winstead as the daughter of Ellen Ripley would be amazing. pic.twitter.com/rozTY6koJJ

I'm getting major Ellen Ripley vibes from this shot of Mary Elizabeth Winstead in her new assassin flick "Kate" – especially with the gun. Maybe an Alien: Isolation flick with her as an all-together different Ripley? #ripley #maryelizabethwinstead #kate #alien #aliens #Alienday https://t.co/5jrndBuyuc

My gayness is skyrocketing. Also, if there is ever an Alien: Isolation movie, Mary Elizabeth Winstead could be Ellen Ripley's daughter 100%. pic.twitter.com/afa0xJG6wa

Mary Elizabeth Winstead stars in the first look at ‘KATE’ for Netflix.
The action thriller follows an assassin who has 24 hours to live before the poison kills her, so she sets out to kill the person who poisoned her before she dies.
