"A survivor … unclouded by conscience, remorse, or delusions of morality": Prometheus Stills

Ridley Scott’s Prometheus has been floating around for a couple of years now, but kept under very tight wraps. Rumors sneak out, but half of them have been contradictory. The movie is due to hit theaters though in June and it looks like the wraps are starting to come off in order to get people excited about a final product. Now we can finally say for certain that it really is an Alien prequel, not just because they’re telling us, but because they’re showing us.

Bloody Disgusting got a hold of an early copy of a Entertainment Weekly (I know! Apparently print magazines do exist somewhere still!) that has a few stills from the film, and they were kind enough to scan them and upload them to the Internet where they can scatter to the four corners of fandom. If you feel so inclined, you may click the pics to embiggen them.

First up, we’ve got Noomi Rapace, Michael Fassbender, and Logan Marshall-Green exploring with nifty spacesuits. Of course, their heads look cut and pasted on, so I don’t know that I quite trust the shot.

Second, we have what appears to be the cockpit of the downed ship from Alien, along with a giant head. And in the inset, Charlize Theron and Idris Elba looking suitably serious:

And they really want to emphasize that giant head, so I assume that’s a 3rd Rock From the Sun reference:

No word yet on which character will be an android full of milk.

I hope Charlize Theron and Idris Elba make out in this movie.

Going to see this movie. All other priorities rescinded.

------------

I hope they do it at the end of the movie because if they do it before that then I'll never find out how it ends due to a sudden onset of HOPE* disorder.

Fassbender will be playing the android.

Posted by: Bishop at November 23, 2011 10:13 AM

Also seems like a perfectly cromulent film.

Thank you for calling the Big Giant Head. We didn't make the head... we make it big and giant.

I think I would be eternally grateful if Fassbender was the android.

That dude, Logan Marshall-Green, is a spittin' image of the default male Commander Shephard from Mass Effect. I wonder if he sounds as stilted as Nolan North, too?

And yeah, that first two-page spread looks like some bad photoshop that a lazy Pajiba writer might come up with. Ahem. But damn if I don't want to see this movie, Alien prequel or no. But it is, which makes it that much more neat-o space-torpedo.

"I wonder if he sounds as stilted as Nolan North, too?"

I've always been puzzled by this, especially given how outstanding North is in Uncharted.

Sorry, sorry, off-topic. But seriously, what the heck?

Also, that first floating head picture is freaking me out. It's like they're watching me with their weird floating heads. Following me around the room.

Help.

I just don't see how it can recapture the suffocating rapture of the first two films. There's just way too much pretty involved.

Posted by: admin at November 23, 2011 10:59 AM

@Ghisent: He's been good in almost every other thing I've heard him in, but for some reason his Shephard sucks. It's one of the biggest reasons I always play as fem-Shep in those games, Jennifer Hale just murders that role.

Back on topic: I do believe the Fassbender is playing the android in this. But no word, yet, on whether he has milk blood or not. And I really hope Theron and Rapace get to go at it, thespian-wise.

Posted by: RobP at November 23, 2011 11:04 AM

Yes. A thespian scene should definitely be a priority to develop the characters and show the range of the actresses.

Theron - But, soft! what flashlight through yonder shattered window breaks?
It is the east, and Elizabeth is the sun.
Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious facehugger,
Who is already sick and pale with grief,
That thou her maid art far more fair than she:
Be not her maid, since she is envious;
Her vestal liver is but sick and green and acidic
And none but fools do wear it; cast it off.


Rapace - Oh Meredith, oh Meredith! wherefore art thou M41A1 Pulse Rifle Meredith?
Deny thy Newt and refuse thy name;
Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love,
And I'll no longer be ensconced in secreted resin.

Theron - Let us scissor.

re: admin: That's how you win EE, folks.

Posted by: RobP at November 23, 2011 11:27 AM

Fassbender already confirmed he is an android. No word yet on the milk.

Posted by: Mark at November 23, 2011 11:53 AM

OMG. This Logan Marshall-Green guy looks like Tom Hardy! It's uncanny!

Posted by: severine at November 23, 2011 2:00 PM

Shepard is voiced by Mark Meer, not Nolan North, just FYI.

Posted by: stryker1121 at November 23, 2011 7:05 PM

woha woha woha. Where the hell did the Nolan North as Comander Sheppard thing come from? Male Sheppard is played by Mark Meer?

Posted by: Ben at November 23, 2011 7:12 PM

How is there an apparently human head statue in an apparently Alien ship?
I was all 'oooh' and then immediately just went 'wait...what?' so now that's gonna bug the piss out of me for 7 MONTHS.

Posted by: Nadine at November 24, 2011 3:18 AM

Also Logan Marshal Green looks like Kevin Costner and Tom Hardy had a kid and that kid is gay and he is PISSED about something.

Posted by: Nadine at November 24, 2011 3:20 AM

And this is suppose to be a prequel...? Yeah right, nice shiny space armo thingy you got there sir... Looks horrible... Oh and great job with the copy paste.

Posted by: sunday at November 25, 2011 2:28 AM

Can't get enough of your work. Really impressed.
