Johner

Background

Johner is a member of the commercial freighter named the Betty. He works as the security for the ship. Johner knows how to brew moonshine.


During the events of Alien: Resurrection (1997) played by Ron Perlman

Johner and the rest of the crew of the Betty including Elgyn, Hillard, Christie, Call, and Vriess arrive on the Auriga with their cargo of hijacked Sleepers. Johner brings along a thermos full of moonshine which also houses a sort of explosive weapon. He sees Ripley in the recreation room playing basketball and demands she give him the ball. Ripley then bounces the ball into Johner's crotch and fights off the rest of the crew. When Call is caught sneaking around in restricted areas, Johner uses his thermos weapon to help kill the Soldiers sent to arrest and kill the crew of the Betty. As they are making their way back to the Betty Johner tells the others they should leave Vriess behind and when he starts yelling at Call and calling her names for being an android, Ripley grabs him by the tongue and makes him shut up. Johner and some survivors make it back to the Betty and Johner and Vriess pilot the ship to Earth.
