How often do you get to hear directly from an actor who got to be facehugged? In today's episode, Jaime, Patrick, and Andie get the full download from the wonderful actor Aileen Wu, whose performance as Navarro is a real highlight of this fascinating movie.

Aileen talks about building her character, getting to know her ship (and her crewmates), how that majestic chestbursting sequence came to life, and so much more. Aileen was an absolute delight to talk to, and we're so excited to share this interview with you all.
