Background

Gediman is a researcher on the USM Auriga. He and Dr. Wren are doing illegal research.


During the events of Alien: Resurrection (1997) played by Brad Dourif

Gediman watches as a Surgeon removes the Xenomorph Queen from Ripley. He asks to keep Ripley alive so he can study her. Gediman and Scientist teach Ripley words and what items are called. When the Xenomorphs mature, Gediman manages to train one of them that the button in his observation area will cause a cold gas to erupt in the room it is held. He becomes distracted when he sees the crew of the Betty kill the Soldiers sent to arrest them and the xenomorphs escape from the pen by killing one of their member and escaping in the hole burned by its acid blood. Gediman enters their holding pen and as he is looking into the hole he is grabbed and dragged away. When Ripley is brought to the queen's chamber, Gediman tells her that due to the cloning process the queen has a working womb. After the Newborn erupts from the queen it goes to Gediman and kills him by chomping on his head.
