Michael Fassbender talked to MTV about the upcoming "prequel" to Alien, now titled Prometheus.



"There's a definite connecting vein," Fassbender said. "You realize you're part of something else, but it's definitely in keeping with the old ones."

"It's new, yet it's in keeping with the old traditions as well. But there's a whole new revelation within this film."

"There's action in it, but the intelligence is what struck me when I read it. It's more sort of like the original ones. There are things happening and building, and the intelligence of the first two-thirds of the film gets you ready for the action."


Fassbender also talked about getting fit for the part:

"I need to sort out my posture a little bit. I want to be as tall as I can standing next to those aliens!"

Co-starring Noomi Rapace and Charlize Theron, the film is scheduled to be released on June 8, 2012.
