Lance Henriksen reprises ‘Bishop’ role in Aliens vs. Predator



Lance Henriksen, who was most memorably cleaved asunder as android (ahem, “artificial lifeform”) Bishop, will see another continuation of his Aliens film role in Rebellion’s Alien vs. Predator game. Henriksen plays Karl Bishop Weyland, the descendant of Weyland-Yutani corporation founder Charles Bishop Weyland. The 69-year-old actor is happy with his virtual likeness (seen above) and is quoted as saying, “I might score from this game!” Joystiq is quoted as saying, “Maybe if it’s from a facehugger, Lance.”

Considering Henriksen’s appearance in one of the most gore-riffic scenes in film (at the time), we should reiterate that Aliens vs. Predator will release in February 2010 on PS3, Xbox 360 and PC — in countries that don’t require toned-down violence. Rebellion has stated that it will not be “releasing a sanitized or cut down version for territories where adults are not considered by their governments to be able to make their own entertainment choices.” Sorry, Australia and Germany.
