Lance Henriksen in ALIENS

Lance Henriksen (1940 - )

Lance Henriksen was born in New York City.

"I always wanted to be an actor, even when I was a little kid. When I used to run away from home, I'd go to movies and sit all night watching Kirk Douglas. When I was 16, I tried getting into the Actors Studio and they told me to get lost. I said 'I'll come back when I'm a man', and I came back when I was 30. I went to sea, I travelled the world ... I was waiting." - Lance Henriksoen

Probably known best for playing the humanoid robot Bishop in two of the ALIEN movies, and the role of Astronaut Wally Schirra in THE RIGHT STUFF. He had a bit part in CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND.

"If I'm going to have a rough time doing it, then that's what I'll do. If I'm in the comfort zone, I can't. I have to get off-balance enough to be alive." - Lance Henriksoen
