EW revealed that Weaver’s character is named Alexandra, who the showrunner Marco Ramirez describes as an “utter badass.” All other character details are being kept secret, but Ramirez had the following to say about the actress:

“Sigourney is the kind of person you can buy as the smartest person in the room, who you can also buy as a person holding a flamethrower. Her character is a very powerful force in New York City. She’s everything Sigourney is: sophisticated, intellectual, dangerous. I’m sorry. I can only say a bunch of adjectives right now.”
