Michael Fassbender Joins Cast of Scott’s PROMETHEUS

By  | 

The Hollywood Reporter has news that Michael Fassbender (300, FISH TANK, INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS) will star opposite Noomi Rapace in 20th Century Fox’s PROMETHEUS.

He was offered the Prometheus role last year (when it was still the ALIEN prequel), with talks on and off throughout the fall. Much of the story line is shrouded in secrecy, but Scott said the movie will have “Alien DNA.” Fassbender is playing an android.

Ridley Scott is directing the movie, which just shifted release dates, moving from March 2012 to a high-profile summer release of June 8, 2012.

You can see Fassbender next in JANE EYRE with Mia Wasikowska on March 11, 2011 and as Magneto in Fox’s X-MEN: FIRST CLASS on June 3, 2011.
