You want an alien world created anew, with wonders and horrors
lurking in its furrows? You go to Ridley Scott, of course,
spectacle maker and pictorialist par excellence. So Prometheus is
bound to be eye filling, with fully wrought planetary vistas and
occasionally jaw-dropping visual coups. And did we use the word
alien back there? Yes, folks, Prometheus is a prequel, in a
sideways sort of fashion, to Scott's 1979 Alien original--or at
least it's a long-distant stage setter for that story. This one
begins with a space mission that could reveal the
extraterrestrial roots of Earth, although what's buried out on
the planet turns out to be much more complicated than expected.
In the midst of suspenseful episodes (and a few contrived plot
turns), Prometheus reaches for Big Answers to Big Questions, in a
grand old sci-fi tradition. This lends the movie a hint of
metaphysical energy, even if Scott's reach extends well, well
beyond his grasp. The hokier moments are carried off with brio by
Michael Fassbender (the robot on board), Charlize Theron, and
Idris Elba, and then you've got Noomi Rapace entering the badass
hall of fame for a long, oh-no-they-didn't sequence involving
radical surgery, which might just induce the vapors in a few
viewers. Even if Prometheus has its holes, the sheer size of the
thing is exciting to be around. Because this movie is gigantic.
--Robert Horton.
A team of scientists journey through the universe on the
spaceship "Prometheus" on a voyage to investigate Alien life
forms. The team of scientists becomes stranded on an Alien world,
and as they struggle to survive it becomes clear that the horrors
they experience are not just a threat to themselves, but to all
of mankind. - WellardRockard

Noomi Rapace asElizabeth Shaw captured the eyes of the
international entertainment community with her commanding,
unnerving and critically accled portrayal of Lisbeth Salander
in the film adaptations of Stieg Larsson's Millennium Trilogy:
The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, The Girl Who Played With Fire,
and The Girl Who Kicked The Hornet's Nest. Rapace began her
acting career at the age of seven, in Iceland's In the Shadow of
the Raven. She has since gone to appear in over twenty films and
television shows. Born in Sweden, Rapace is the daughter of
Flamenco singer Rogelio Duran.
Shaw, an archaeologist, discovers a clue to the origins of
mankind on Earth, leading her and a team of scientists and
explorers on a thrilling journey, aboard the spaceship
Prometheus, to the darkest corners of the universe. There, they
must fight a terrifying battle to save the future of the human
race. Shaw and her team aboard the Prometheus are on nothing less
than a journey to discover answers to some of life’s most
profound questions. She is a scientist filled with faith and
hope, but who transforms into a warrior when faced with the
danger she encounters at her destination.
Michael Fassbender as David View larger

Michael Fassbender as David enjoyed a phenomenal run of
critically accled performances in 2011 and 2012, garnering
numerous accolades and awards. The National Board of Review
awarded Fassbender the Spotlight Award, and the Los Angeles Film
Critics Association named him Best Actor for his performances in
Shame and Davide Cronenberg’s drama A Dangerous Method, in which
Fassbender plays Carl Jung site Keira Knightley and Viggo
Mortensen. Fassbender was also recently seen in Matthew Vaughn’s
X-Men: First Class, as Erik Lehnsherr, better known as
super-villain Magneto; as Rochester in Cary Joji Fukunaga’s Jane
Eyre; and as an assassin site Ewan McGregor and Gina Carano
in Steven Soderbergh’s Haywire. Fassbender is a graduate of
London's prestigious Drama Centre. His breakthrough role came as
Sgt. Burton "Pat" Christenson in HBO's epic, award-winning
miniseries Band of Brothers.
David is an android creation of Weyland Industries. While David
possesses extraordinary intelligence and other capabilities, his
principal tasks aboard the Prometheus are servile. David is
however far more “human” than one might expect of a synthetic
person. He is jealous and arrogant because he realizes that his
knowledge is all-encompassing and therefore he is superior to the
human crew members. David’s allegiances are unclear, and he can
be very bold in the decisions he makes.
Meredith Vickers View larger

Charlize Theron as Meredith Vickers demands the audience’s full
attention as soon as she appears on screen. This South African
captivated audiences as female serial killer Aileen Wuornos in
the independent gem Monster. Charlize’s feature film debut was
MGM’s 2 Days in the Valley, with Jeff Daniels. In 2001, Theron
starred in the Warner Bros. tearjerker Sweet November alongside
Keanu Reeves, as well as in Woody Allen’s Curse of the Jade
Scorpion. In 2002 Theron starred site Patrick Swayze and
Billy Bob Thornton in Waking Up in Reno, and site Kevin
Bacon, Courtney Love, and Dakota Fanning in the feature film
Trapped, directed by Luis Mandoki.
Vickers is a “suit” representing the interests of the
mega-corporation funding the Prometheus’ journey to a distant,
foreboding world. Her perspective on the mission is at odds with
the rest of the crew’s. For Vickers, this epic, two-year journey
to a distant planet has been boiled down to economics. But as
with so much else about the mission, there are deeper layers and
mysteries to Vickers’ ultimate goals.
Logan Marshall-Green as Charlie Holloway View larger

Logan Marshall-Green as Charlie Holloway ) appeared on the big
screen in Devil, produced by M. Night Shyamalan. He is best-known
to film audiences for playing radical activist Paco in Julie
Taymor’s Across the Universe. He has also co-starred in the films
Brooklyn’s Finest, The Kindness of Strangers and The Great Raid.
A graduate of New York University’s Tisch Graduate Acting Program
and a prolific stage actor, Marshall-Green earned a Drama League
nomination for his work in King Lear with Kevin Klein at the
Public Theatre, and Greg Kotis' Pig Farm at the Roundabout
Theatre off-Broadway. He earned Lortel Award nominations for his
performances in Dog Sees God and Neil LaBute's The Distance from
Here, the latter also earning him a Drama Desk Ensemble Award.
Holloway is Shaw’s partner, both personally and professionally,
in a quest for answers to some of humanity’s most important
questions. Like Shaw, Holloway is a scientist with a thirst for
answers, but he thinks the end of their search will yield very
different results from those Shaw expects. While Shaw is the
heart of the search, Holloway is its guts. He is constantly
pushing the envelope, going to the extreme in everything he does.
He is driven by the thrill of the quest.
