LONDON -
The 75-year-old actress, known for films including the Alien series (1979 to 2024) and Avatar franchise (2009 to present), admitted she had experienced "moments of terror because the theatre is so much bigger than any place I've ever worked".
She and other members of the cast and production spoke to reporters after press night at Theatre Royal Drury Lane on Dec 19.
British director Jamie Lloyd, who grew up watching Weaver on the big screen, said he "never dreamed she'd say yes".
