this can certainly be arranged

That's the word on the street at least. Fassbender certainly has exactly the right kind of presence for playing an android so one has the assume it's true.

Is Guy Pearce In Prometheus?
29 April 2011

Anonymous tipper says he's on set

Ridley Scott's publicity machine remains as tight-lipped as Ryan Reynolds at the end of Wolverine, but those leaks and rumours are still flying. Making a change from the endless is-it-or-isn't-it-Alien speculation though, comes a report from CHUD that Guy Pearce has been spotted on the Prometheus set.

An anonymous email was sent under the pseudonym Brian Blessed (unless it really was from Brian Blessed, which would be awesome), and has since apparently been "corroborated" by, er, two more anonymous emails. It runs thusly (with some bleeping to protect the guilty): "My mate is working on Prometheus as **** and met Guy Pearce on set today. She's previously worked on ****, **** and **** and I've no reason to believe she's lying."

Hey, we really enjoyed ****!

Hardly rock-solid intel, but assuming good-faith on the part of the emailer, assuming Pearce didn't just wander along to say hello, and assuming Brian Blessed's "mate" didn't meet Michael Fassbender and get confused, this is the first anyone's heard of Pearce being involved. If it's true, it is, of course, excellent news. But given his screen-time in The Road and The Hurt Locker, there's no guarantee that he'll be on set for long.

Pearce notwithstanding, Prometheus definitely does number the aforementioned Mr Fassbender in its cast, along with Noomi Rapace, Idris Elba, Charlize Theron, and Rafe Spall. It's lined up for release next June, so we've more than a year of rumour-mongering ahead of us yet.

And here , we , GO.

Imagine that Alien still had to be made nowadays , If I'd be the casting director I would think Guy Pearce certainly fits the Nostromo crew.

Prove me wrong.

Let's hope this gossip is true because I'd love to see him in Prometheus.
Hopefully with some more screen-time indeed but it doesn't look that way unfortunately.

God I gotta stop reading news for this movie...

Rafe Spall is the droid

Is he? New York Magazine just recently posted a picture of him in his "blonde android hairdo". But who knows? They could have been wrong...

‘Prometheus’ Bits: Neville Page Joins Design Team, Set Photo Leaked, Michael Fassbender Talks
2 June 2011



Details on Ridley Scott‘s Prometheus have remained shrouded in secrecy from the very beginning, and not much has changed now that shooting is actually underway. A couple of new tidbits today don’t reveal a whole lot more, but in the absence of any solid details about the film, seem worth noting nonetheless. After all, what kind of jerks would we be if we didn’t share what little information we had?

According to his resume, recently posted on the Worldwide Production Agency website, designer Neville Page is working on concept art and costumes for Prometheus. Page’s previous work includes creature designs for Avatar, Cloverfield, and Star Trek, as well as costume design on Tron: Legacy, Green Lantern, and the upcoming Spider-Man.

As other folks have pointed out, Page’s Cloverfield monster bears a resemblance to the Space Jockey from Alien, which an earlier rumor suggested would be appearing in Prometheus. What Page’s involvement actually means for Prometheus, I have no idea — but the fact that Page knows how to visualize Alien-esque creatures seems like a promising sign, at least.

Edit: We’ve been informed that Neville Page’s work was done in very early stages of the film only. What you’ll see in Prometheus was actually designed by Carlos Huante.

After the jump, Michael Fassbender speaks and we get an early glimpse at the set. Kind of.

In an interview with Metro New York, Michael Fassbender spoke briefly about working on Prometheus. As expected, the actor remained tight-lipped about any character or plot details. However, he did confirm that Prometheus is not a prequel to Alien:

"The thing is, it’s not a prequel. It definitely is separate. It is a separate story, but there are threads that connect the stories."

The actor then gave an intriguing answer when Metro asked what Prometheus was:

"Well Prometheus is basically a Greek god that stole fire from the gods so that he could give humans equal footing with them. And then he got sort of tied up to a tree or rock and then an eagle comes down and eats his liver each day and it regrows and he eats it, regrows so figure it out. How can you tie that into space?"

As previously reported, Fassbender will be playing an android in the movie.

A couple months back, Russ commented on the apparently airtight security on the film’s Pinewood Studios set — he noted that very few set photos had been leaked. Earlier this week, someone actually managed to sneak out a photo, and it reveals… that Russ was right about the intense obsession with secrecy. Check it out:



According to an unnamed source, the crates surrounding the green screen were purposely brought in in order to hide “a bunch of vehicles” from curious passersby. This is apparently unusual for Pinewood Studios, which generally doesn’t bother concealing its backlots from the public. Feel free to speculate on what’s lurking behind those crates in the comments. Actual aliens, maybe?
