A behind the scenes featurette with Charlize Theron as Meredith Vickers has been released. The clip sheds some light on the character after appearing to spend most of the time lurking in the background.

PROMETHEUS – SPOILER TV SPOT 4
May 16, 2012 By Leave a Comment
I guess I'm starting to give readers the impression that this blog is almost entirely dedicated to Ridley Scott's Prometheus - with the shear number of trailers, teasers and spoilers being released by fox, you could easily make that assumption. Hopefully there wont be many more releases between now and the end of the month, when Prometheus hits the cinemas. This new 30 second TV spot shows a few more seconds of unseen footage, particularly two scenes involving Milburn (Rafe Spall) and Shaw … [Read more...]

It's not too spoilerific, but to geeks world wide the most appealing aspect has got to be the colourful control panels on display. The visual effects and cinematography of just this clip are pretty darn amazing and only make me want to consider booking that midnight screening even more - who am I kidding, I was always going to see the midnight screening! Here is the video along with some screenshots in high … [Read more...]

RIDLEY SCOTT’S PROMETHEUS – FIRST TRAILER
February 16, 2012 By 1 Comment
Prometheus, the follow up to Ridley Scott's 1979 film Alien, has just launched its first international trailer today. Written by LOST creator Damon Lindelof and Jon Spaihts, the story precedes the events of Alien, but is not directly connected to the films in the Alien franchise....so half way between a reboot and a prequel then. The cast looks pretty freaking cool, with Charlize Theron, Michael Fassbender (of Shame), Idris Elba (The Wire's Stringer Bell), Guy Pierce and Noomi Rapace (of the … [Read more...]
