New 'Prometheus' Viral Video Spotlights David

20th Century Fox has released a new viral video to help hype up the highly anticipated Ridley Scott directed Alien-universe set Prometheus. 

Following up on the first clever spot featuring Guy Pearce in a faux TED Talk conference set in 2023 as Peter Weyland (a character whose influence is a driving force in the Alien series), this second video focuses on David, the android character played by Michael Fassbender. Androids in space are a staple in the series, Ian Holm played the artificial Ash in Alien, and Lance Henriksen portrayed Bishop in Aliens. It's no surprise that there would be another human companion featured in Prometheus to give their use additional historical background in the context of the series.

Prometheus is set to hit theaters in 3-D on June 8th, and stars Charlize Theron, Michael Fassbender, Idris Elba, Noomi Rappace, Guy Pearce, and Patrick Wilson.

Four New 'Prometheus' Images Surface

Courtesy of HeyUGuys.com, check out the latest four images from 20th Century Fox's highly anticipated Prometheus.

At a recent screening of select 3D footage in London, director Ridley Scott updated the relentless fan debate regarding the film's link to 1979's Alien. According to Scott, the script as it developed “adjusted itself into much larger questions so that it barely contains Alien DNA now.” He confirmed that its only in the final seven minutes of Prometheus that the two films link together. The new images certainly reflect a familiar sci-fi design that was unique to the Alien series, most notably when it comes to the biomechanical look made famous by H.R. Giger.

Official Synopsis:

"Ridley Scott, director of Alien and Blade Runner, returns to the genre he helped define. With Prometheus, he creates a groundbreaking mythology, in which a team of explorers discover a clue to the origins of mankind on Earth, leading them on a thrilling journey to the darkest corners of the universe. There, they must fight a terrifying battle to save the future of the human race."

Prometheus is set to hit theaters in 3-D on June 8th, and stars Charlize Theron, Michael Fassbender, Idris Elba, Noomi Rappace, Guy Pearce, and Patrick Wilson.
