What is a Xenomorph Queen?
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT James Cameron’s Aliens expanded the saga's canon by introducing the Xenomorph Queen, a different type of Alien that served as the sequel’s main antagonist. Whereas Ridley Scott’s Alien turns into a slasher after the Chestbuster is born, Cameron’s Aliens was essentially an action movie. Aliens was bigger than Alien in every way, from the sets to the number of Xenomorph creatures involved.
Aliens' Xenomorph Queen Is The Leader of The Hive Aliens introduced the Xenomorph Queen, a special type of Xenomorph that served as the leader of the hive encountered by Ripley on the human colony of LV-426. The fact that there were dozens of Xenomorphs on LV-426 meant that most humans there had probably been captured and turned into hosts by the Facehuggers. What happened to Kane in Alien was now happening on a larger scale with dozens of humans.
Toward the end of Aliens, Ripley encountered dozens of Alien eggs and came face to face with the Xenomorph Queen, confirming that there was indeed a “queen of the hive.” The other Xenomorphs treated the Queen differently and had her safety as a priority. The Queen herself valued the safety of the Alien eggs and ragefully went after Ripley after the Lieutenant burned down the Xenomorph’s offspring.
How Xenomorph Queens Are Chosen How a Xenomorph Queen is born or chosen is a complicated question that depends on which Alien continuity is being considered. For example, there are different types of Alien eggs in the Alien comics, suggesting that a Xenomorph Queen may come from a special type of egg. That said, this does not necessarily apply to the Alien movie lore. In the Alien movies timeline, not considering Alien vs. Predator, not much is known about how Xenomorph Queens are chosen.
