During her recent appearance on the Graham Norton Show, Sigourney Weaver shared some behind-the-scenes details about working with renowned director James Cameron. As many in the industry know, Cameron is notorious for being a demanding and exacting director, known for his blockbuster hits like Titanic.
Weaver, who has collaborated with Cameron on iconic films such as Avatar and Alien, gave some rare insight into what it's like to work with him. According to the 75-year-old actress, Cameron takes his vision for each shot very seriously and expects nothing less than perfection from his cast and crew.
"We know each other and we like each other," Weaver shared with Norton. "The best thing to do if you're in one of Jim's films is to do everything he asks you to. I never ask questions, I just say, 'Well, that sounds fabulous.' That's how I ended up agreeing to free dive for five minutes!"
She also discussed her return to the stage in a new West End production, expressing her excitement to work with director Jamie Lloyd and the rest of the talented cast. Weaver reflected on her role as Prospero, a traditionally male character, and how it centers around a woman seeking justice and retribution.
The actress and Cameron first worked together on Alien in 1986 and later reunited for Avatar. Weaver shared her anticipation for their upcoming production, praising its ambition and the blend of humor and romance.
"It's a spectacular production and I think we do all of its elements justice," she said. "It's also been a wonderful surprise for me to return to the stage after 12 years. Thankfully, it's like riding a bike and I'm thoroughly enjoying my role in Shakespeare's play."
Sigourney made her West End debut with this production, and it seems she couldn't be happier with the experience. As she continued to chat with Norton, she even invited others to share their own stories and experiences with celebrity encounters.
