by Adam Chitwood    Posted: May 24th, 2012 at 6:05 pm

The release date for Ridley Scott’s Prometheus is so damn close, but we’ve still got nearly two weeks to go.  It’s been a tough road of anticipation, but the finish line is in sight, folks.  In the meantime, two new featurettes for the film have gone online to whet fans’ appetites.  The first one, entitled “The Vision of Prometheus”, features Scott and some of the actors (including Guy Pearce) talking about the larger themes of the film, shooting in 3D, and more.  The second featurette focuses on the character played by Logan Marshall-Green and gives us a bit of insight into what his role in the film will entail.

Hit the jump to check out the featurettes.  The film also stars Noomi Rapace, Michael Fassbender, Charlize Theron, and Idris Elba.  Prometheus opens in 3D on June 8th.

With the Cannes Film Festival officially kicking off today, there is plenty of big, bold movie marketing to be found.  For those of you who couldn’t make it to France (including me), we thought we’d bring you some of the sights.  Our international correspondent Magdalena (who you can follow on twitter) has been busy snapping some shots of promotional material at the festival.  We already brought you the first iteration here, but now we have some more goodies to check out.  They include shots of Spring Breakers, Dracula 3D, Brian De Palma’s Passion and Olympus Has Fallen starring Gerard Butler.

Noomi Rapace Contacts Peter Weyland in New Viral Video for PROMETHEUS

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: May 16th, 2012 at 7:53 am

The viral campaign for Prometheus continues to be absolutely spectacular, as a new video has surfaced online featuring Noomi Rapace’s character sending a video message to one Mr. Peter Weyland (played by Guy Pearce).  She expresses that she knows where answers can be found to some of life’s biggest questions, and she pleads for Weyland to fund an expedition.  All of this is augmented by a trippy computer program and some seriously eerie musical undertones.  The viral campaign kicked off with a wonderfully chilling TED talk by Pearce, followed by a fantastic video featuring Michael Fassbender’s character.  Scribe Damon Lindelof recently talked about how the idea of these viral videos came about and how they hint at the film’s relationship to Alien.

New Images and First Poster from Brian De Palma’s PASSION, Starring Rachel McAdams and Noomi Rapace

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: May 15th, 2012 at 9:11 am

We shared the first image from director Brian De Palma’s erotic thriller Passion last week, and it was obvious from the “Rachel McAdams and Noomi Rapace kiss” photo that De Palma had something decidedly different up his sleeve.  Now a few new images and the first poster from the film have gone online, and the “erotic thriller” moniker definitely seems appropriate.  The story centers on the relationship between a woman and her “innocent, lovely and easily exploited” protégé.  It also apparently involves McAdams wearing a creepy as hell mask and wielding a knife.

Hit the jump to check out the images.  Passion will be shopped at the Cannes Film Festival, which kicks off this week.

New Spoilery TV Spot for PROMETHEUS

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: May 15th, 2012 at 8:47 am

A new TV spot for Prometheus has gone online, and it’s apparently loaded with spoilers.  Though I’d normally watch whatever clip or spot I’m reporting on, more than a few others have pointed out that this TV spot is apparently chock-full of spoilers, so I’d rather not ruin my moviegoing experience for the sake of viewing a piece of marketing.  That said, if you’re unbothered by spoilers then by all means have at this new spot.  We shared the first clip from the film yesterday, and it was a fairly benign scene from the film that simply showed the ship landing on the death alien planet.

Hit the jump to watch the spot.  The film stars Noomi Rapace, Michael Fassbender, Charlize Theron, Idris Elba, Logan Marshall-Green, and Guy Pearce.  Prometheus opens in 3D on June 3rd.

First Clip from PROMETHEUS

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: May 14th, 2012 at 9:30 am

The marketing train for director Ridley Scott’s Prometheus continues to roll on, and the first clip from the film has now surfaced online.  By now I don’t really think any more convincing to see the pic is necessary, but for those of you interested in seeing more from Scott’s return to sci-fi, this clip should serve as a nice appetizer.  Said clip features the ship Prometheus landing on the planet we’ve seen so much of already, with Logan Marshall-Green delivering a particularly eerie line.  If you missed the interview with screenwriter Damon Lindelof in which he talked about how he turned an Alien prequel into Prometheus, trying not to reveal too much in trailers, the viral campaign and much more I highly suggest you check it out.

Hit the jump to watch the clip.  The officially R-rated Prometheus also stars Noomi Rapace, Charlize Theron, Michael Fassbender, Idris Elba, Rafe Spall, Sean Harris, and Guy Pearce.  The film opens in 3D on June 8th.

17 New Images from PROMETHEUS

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: May 10th, 2012 at 1:13 pm

The latest issue of EW appears to have a big story on Ridley Scott’s Prometheus, as the magazine has posted 17 new images from the film for our viewing pleasure.  In addition to film stills and candid on-set shots, we also get a few “photoshoot”-style images, including Michael Fassbender, Charlize Theron and Noomi Rapace goofing around in their spacesuits (this is now my favorite Prometheus image ever).  We recently learned that the film will officially be rated R (rejoice!), and a new featurette entitled “Origins” went online yesterday for those of you who are strangely still on the fence about this one.

Hit the jump to check out the images.  The film also stars Idris Elba, Logan Marshall-Green, Rafe Spall, Sean Harris, and Guy Pearce.  Prometheus opens in 3D on June 8th.

New Featurette for PROMETHEUS

by Matt Goldberg    Posted: May 9th, 2012 at 10:15 am

A new featurette for Ridley Scott‘s Prometheus has gone online.  While I don’t think the three-minute trailer laid out any major spoilers, I feel like we’re getting to the advertising-spoils-everything point, so I’m going dark on the movie.  I can’t tell you what’s in this new featurette except that it’s entitled “Origins”.

Hit the jump to check out the featurette.  As we reported earlier this week, the film will be Rated-R for “sci-fi violence including some intense images, and brief language.”  The movie stars Noomi Rapace, Michael Fassbender, Idris Elba, Rafe Spall, Sean Harris, Logan Marshall-Green, Guy Pearce, and Charlize Theron.  Prometheus opens in 3D on June 8th.

Rachel McAdams and Noomi Rapace Get Intimate in First Image from Brian De Palma’s PASSION

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: May 8th, 2012 at 10:55 am

The first image from director Brian De Palma’s Passion has gone online, and stars Rachel McAdams and Noomi Rapace look to be getting quite close.  The film is a remake of the French thriller Love Crime and “tells the story of a deadly power struggle between two women in the dog-eat-dog world of international business.”  As is evident in this first image, the dog-eat-dog world of international business often includes making out with your colleagues/enemies.  The story centers on the relationship between a woman and her “innocent, lovely and easily exploited” protégé.  It’s not clear which roles the actresses play, but judging by the unease on display in this image, I’m inclined to believe that Rapace assumes the protégé role.

Needless to say, it certainly sounds like De Palma has crafted a sexually charged thriller with a pair of gutsy performances, so I’m eager to check it out.  Hit the jump to see the image along with a more detailed synopsis.  Passion will be shopped for distribution at the Cannes Film Festival later this month.

New Featurette for Ridley Scott’s PROMETHEUS

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: April 30th, 2012 at 11:34 am

On the heels of last night’s new trailer (which is loaded with new footage), Fox has released a new featurette for Ridley Scott’s return to sci-fi, Prometheus.  There are bits and pieces of new footage scattered throughout the clip, interspersed with interviews featuring some of the cast, Scott, and screenwriters Damon Lindelof and Jon Spaihts.  I was already sold on this film a long time ago so I’m trying to stay away from a ton of new footage, but Fox seems to be shedding a lot more light on what’s in store for us come June and they’re making it very hard to stay in the dark.  That said, if you’re still not convinced that Prometheus is worth checking out or don’t care about seeing new footage, then this clip is worth a gander.

Hit the jump to watch the featurette.  The film stars Noomi Rapace, Michael Fassbender, Idris Elba, Guy Pearce, Rafe Spall, Sean Harris, Logan Marshall-Green, and Charlize Theron. Prometheus opens in 3D on June 8th.

New Three-Minute PROMETHEUS Trailer Has Loads of New Footage and a Great Look at Alien Life Forms

by Dave Trumbore    Posted: April 29th, 2012 at 1:56 pm

Prometheus hasn’t landed yet, but a new three-minute trailer has.  It shows a ton of new footage (which may be on the spoilery side) and emphasizes Charlize Theron’s character, Meredith Vickers.  Vickers comes across like a female version of Stephen Lang’s Colonel in Avatar and clearly has a seedy agenda (which is blatantly called out in a spat of coarse dialogue).  The trailer plays as a mini-movie of sorts, a condensed version of what we can expect when the full theatrical release hits theaters on June 8th.  Get caught up on all of our previous coverage here, including images, featurettes, posters, what the film will be rated and the ongoing viral marketing campaign.  Directed by Ridley Scott, Prometheus also stars Noomi Rapace, Michael Fassbender, Idris Elba, Logan Marshall-Green and Guy Pearce.  Hit the jump to check out the awesome new trailer.

New Featurette for PROMETHEUS Is Loaded with Behind-the-Scenes Footage

by Adam Chitwood    Posted: April 25th, 2012 at 6:09 pm

A new featurette for Ridley Scott’s Prometheus has landed online.  The sci-fi pic is one of the most anticipated films of the year, so I doubt many of you need further convincing to check it out opening weekend.  That said, this new featurette is a nice treat for fans anxiously awaiting Scott’s return to the horror/sci-fi genre.  Scott himself is featured prominently in the clip, as we get bunch of glimpses at scenes being filmed intercut with finished footage.  Also of note, Scott is seen wearing 3D glasses while watching playback.  He spoke glowingly of the 3D format last year at Comic-Con and I’m hoping to see something truly special when Prometheus hits theaters, akin to Martin Scorsese’s beautiful use of 3D in Hugo.

Hit the jump to watch the featurette.  The film stars Noomi Rapace, Michael Fassbender, Idris Elba, Guy Pearce, Rafe Spall, Sean Harris, Logan Marshall-Green, and Charlize Theron. Prometheus opens in 3D on June 8th.

New Viral Posters for PROMETHEUS

by Dave Trumbore    Posted: April 18th, 2012 at 6:20 pm

The marketing machine for director Ridley Scott’s Prometheus is really cranking up: just yesterday we brought you this fantastic ad and poster for David 8, the human-looking android (played by Michael Fassbender) who is a product of the Weyland Corporation (headed by Guy Pearce). But it seems that David 8 is not the only machine roving around the universe in Prometheus and these new viral posters serve to introduce you to some of the others.  No, there are no more androids, but fans of these schematics of the explorer ship Prometheus should enjoy these new images equally as much. Prometheus also stars Noomi Rapace, Idris Elba, Rafe Spall, Sean Harris, Logan Marshall-Green, and Charlize Theron, and opens in 3D on June 8th. Hit the jump to check out the new posters as well as a recap of our previous coverage.

Ridley Scott Talks Running Time and Director’s Cut of PROMETHEUS

by Dave Trumbore    Posted: April 15th, 2012 at 2:44 pm

As one of our most anticipated movies of the quarter, Ridley Scott’s Prometheus is standing strong for sci-fi in a year that is dominated by superhero fare.  While you can check out the trailers, viral marketing and a host of images for the film, Scott recently commented on a few details of Prometheus regarding its run-time and his director’s cut.  Although he’s known for his support of director’s cut releases on DVD/Blu-ray – notably Blade Runner, Kingdom of Heaven and Legend – Scott has said that:

“The cut that you’re gonna see in cinemas…it’s always the director’s cut, really.”

Whether that quote still stands once Prometheus hits the store shelves remains to be seen. The film stars Noomi Rapace, Michael Fassbender, Idris Elba, Rafe Spall, Sean Harris, Logan Marshall-Green, and Charlize Theron and opens on June 8th.  Hit the jump to read more about what Scott had to say.

New Images from PROMETHEUS Mini-Game Reveal Lots of Ship Details

by Dave Trumbore    Posted: April 12th, 2012 at 8:51 pm

While your news feed might be buried by all things The Avengers at the moment, lest we forget a little sci-fi flick that’s coming out in June called Prometheus.  It’s been about 36 hours since we last updated you, so I think it’s time to remind you about the film with some new images.  These come from a mini-game called “Prometheus Mission Connect” and reveal quite a detailed look at the interiors and exteriors of the exploratory ship. Prometheus stars Noomi Rapace, Michael Fassbender, Charlize Theron, Idris Elba, Rafe Spall, Sean Harris and Logan Marshall-Green and opens in 3D on June 8th.  Hit the jump to check out the images and for information on how you can win a trip to visit the site where director Ridley Scott’s Prometheus was filmed, Pinewood Studios in London.
