"We trace the fate of Aliens' commandos"

Impressive article looking back at the characters from Aliens and how they got the roles, where they are now, etc:

Quote:
Al Matthews, a genuine Vietnam vet with 13 combat awards, was a shoo-in for the role of Sgt. Apone: "I asked James Cameron how long it took him to decide to cast me. Thirty seconds!"

Contrary to the claims of his co-stars, Matthews is unconvinced that the Marines would have worked as a real unit. "Jim asked me to train them, and the main thing I had to teach those guys was never point a weapon at somebody, and never walk around with your finger on the trigger. We use blanks, but they can do some damage."

I just saw this a few days ago. Love the article.

Especially the bit where James Remar blew a hole in the set with a live shotgun round. Maybe that contributed to him being let go.
