He’s played by Yaphet Kotto, an outstanding actor and character in a strong ensemble cast. Spoiler alert: he doesn’t die first he dies last at the very end of the film and he has an unforgettable voice throughout. Love Parker.

Alien and its place in film is far and away more important and more significant than this podcast. I don’t think I’ve listened to an episode since.”
