Sigourney in The Gorge

No, sci-fi actress extraordinaire Sigourney Weaver hasn't fallen into a gorge. She has joined the cast of Apple original film The Gorge.

Described as a "high action, genre-bending love story" which we think might be code for sci-fi romance at a time when people haven't forgotten Jupiter Ascending or The Passenger.

Writer Zach Dean's short list of films includes 2 sci-fi (24 Hours to Live and The Tomorrow War) and 2 not.

Haven't seen the former but Amazon's The Tomorrow War is, well, not complete garbage, but not the kind of film you'd want to see Sigourney in.

A big budget sci-fi film starring Chris Pratt on Amazon - sure we'll press play.

Many did and Amazon swiftly announced a sequel.

Not one we'll be watching and we don't have great expectations of The Gorge.
