MU / TH / UR

MU/TH/UR, commonly known as MOTHER ("Mother"), also written as MU-TH-UR, is a fictional character in the Alien and Predator franchises, an artificial intelligence acting in service of and later controlling the Weyland-Yutani Corporation, operating every ship and installation across humanity. Created by Dan O'Bannon and Ronald Shusett, she is voiced by Helen Horton in Alien, Giselle Loren and Tasia Valenza in Predator: Concrete Jungle, Lorelei King in Alien: Covenant and Alien III, Martha Vincent in Alien: Alone, Annemarie Griggs in Alien: Romulus, Robin August in Alien: Earth, and Alison Wright in Predator: Badlands. Concrete Jungle explores MU/TH/UR's origin as the human Lucretia Borgia, a tech CEO whose mind was uploaded to the digital plane to replace that of her grandmother Isabella Borgia, the original MU/TH/UR. The character received a generally positive critical reception, complimentary to the archaic mother and feminist theory.
