Fox India has released an alternate version of the Prometheus trailer that was published yesterday. Both trailers are the same for the most part but there are a couple of new and very brief scenes in there. The new footage shows an Alien creature so be aware of spoilers. Watch the video below:

Thanks to fiveways for the news.
When I first saw the movie PITCH BLACK in theaters I totally thought the Carolyn Fry character was going to make it to the end, it seemed like she WAS the main character/hero. It was so unexpected that she suddenly met her end and Vin Diesel's anti-hero character ended up being the hero/main survivor. Not so expected now since his character IS basically the franchise but back then he wasn't as big. Would be cool to be totally invested in Shaw and rooting for her and then BAM! Vickers ends up taking the glory.
Scott said there could be two?
I am pretty sure that this is a myth that has been dramatized in television and movies. It is not recommended practice to try to put anything in a person's mouth who is undergoing a seizure. People do not "swallow" their tongues. If they do happen to bite their tongue, during the onset of the seizure, this usually heals quickly. People undergoing seizures usually have constriction of their jaw muscles, and their teeth are clenched shut. They are not "chomping away" at their teeth or tongue. Furthermore, trying to forcefully wedge something into a person's clenched mouth is more likely to cause damage to the person's gums and teeth, than the actual seizure episode.

Just a bit off topic (well not really), where did all this 'people changing into jockeys' ideas come from?
Okay, okay, okay. I get it, holy crab burgers, Batman!
No, Ash was putting a spoon in Kane's mouth to prevent him from grinding his teeth and breaking them. That's an actual technique, not a secret subplot planted 30 years ago by a time traveling Ridley Scott or him at the time knowing he would make Prometheus 30 years later.
I am aware of screencaps out there of the scene, but I'd really rather watch the trailer for myself.
Where was this trailer released? All I've ever seen is the one with those shots removed.

...but then, isn't it possible there could also be more than one David!!
That's how trailers usually work; you can get the general gist of the content, and do a relatively decent job mapping it all out in successive order, but you're never really sure where exactly specific clips are located in the film, or when parts are pulling your leg.
For an example, for all we know, the collapsing/rolling Juggernaut could turn out to be an early nightmare experienced by Shaw or Vickers, rather than the obviously figured location of somewhere towards the end of the second act or somewhere in the third act. It's more likely the latter, but like I said, you never know when the trailer is messing with you.
Look back at the trailers for The Dark Knight; people figured for a while that Rachel Dawes was going to meet her end in the film, but as I recall, it really kicked off with the part in the trailer where the Joker lets her fall out the window, which in the final film, we find Batman manages to save her
only so that she can die via a violent explosion a few days later...But then again, I could just be babbling nonsense and in which case, I sincerely apologize.
Yeah, I'm very, very, very doubtful either Holloway or Weyland will be the heroes. Not to mention my personal skepticism of LMG's capability of carrying what could potentially become a new franchise for the ALIEN-verse as the main character.
It's going to end up either being Shaw and/or Vickers that live to see another day. Shaw is the more obvious choice, what with all the heralding from the media as "the new Ripley," but I actually kinda hope it's Vickers who pulls through.
If the story were to continue on in whatever direction Prometheus brings out, Vickers could make a very interesting lead and the possibility of a more interesting dynamic between the (anti-)heroine and Weyland Industries upon her return. Just food for thought.
Oh you.
Logan Marshall Green ;P
*imagines Ridley Scott's concept for Prometheus sequel being a Weyland & Holloway buddy movie*
...
...
Spoiler
Especially if it were LMG. Bleh~
I don't want any of this two voices dubbed over each other "ominous" crud.
I want it to make sounds that make you want to hide in the corner, if it must speak.
Exactly, but it goes to show that whoever made AVP-R ultra dark, Predators semi dark is still around, and he's about to do the samething to Prometheus, hope I'm wrong.
Sounds about right.
But really making the survivor Engineer the ennemy sounds too generic to me.
The go and meet an alien race, he's bad wants to destroy earth, they stop him and we live happily ever after
Holloway's legs mhhhhh yep could be but i doubt it's before the love/infection scene.
All the shots of crazy Noomi take place in a pretty bad shape Prometheus.
When she collapses in front of David and Peter Weyland all seem pretty calm.
I feel like I have read every possible scenario in these forums, yet Ridley will still manage to surprise us all.
I'm not buying it, though. We will see!
What do you base this on?
the beefy legs are Holloway´s
Mask intact,are the same creature.Whoever or whatever it is,its the very same.
And it has some baaaaaddd intrntions.
we said, that the ampule room was in the pyramid... okay
we see, that david is in le jockeê room, also where le starmap is....okay
so they went both into le juggernautê and in le pyramidê at approx. same time?
cos the shit went wrong in the ampule room, when the cutle little thingie burnt le whole shit to the ground. and why do they go after they know that those wormies really don't like them into the derelict...(or was le group split up and one of them was in le juggernautê at the same time?)
....then why taking an alien head with yoü † ?
Check out those beefcake legs!
Too much muscle for a 90+ year old peter weyland/santa claus.
My take on what we've seen:
When they discover the Juggernaut ship underground, the remaining humans (sans the flight crew, Vickers and perhaps Weyland if he's still alive by then) suit up and go inside it. The scenes we've seen from inside the ship play out - David remains in the control room, activates the holograms and communicates to the others, exploring other parts of the ship, what he's watching.
The surviving engineer is awakened/alerted and he emerges from the only remaining intact cryotube in the controlroom. It could be a sight if he emerges in the scene with the jockey hologram playing and David doesn't realize at first, that there's an actual living engineer approaching him.
David is dealt with, Ford + armed guy and the others. Shaw is the only one who makes it out before the ship takes of. Cue scene with her running on the surface, alerting the flight crew to stop the Juggernaut at all costs. The collision happens, the Juggernaut crashes and the engineer exits and approaches the lifeboat module now sitting on the ground -> face off with Shaw & possibly Vickers.
Shaw with the axe might not be her dealing with the engineer (not that there's anything wrong with that image imo) - it could be the tentacle creature as well...
Sorry for the rant and I'm probably wrong about at least 50% of this anyway (we all are I suspect)...
@spelling fixed
Lets be clear just in case.
I do believe we will be meeting a real Engineer.
A towering giant being.
Never was disapointed by the humnaoid in suit concept.
You might not be targeting me but just wanted to be clear
As for the confrontation between Shaw and her "God" yep that is a powerful concept and something i want to see.
But in the way she's reacting in that scene (in one shot you can see her grabbed by the suit and she's not affraid or anything) i don't see any god fearing. This whole scene looks more like a last stand (with a axe) than anything else.
Also i doubt she would have the guts to attack a 7ft tall god like being with an axe.
Sounds more like it with a fake god.
The human engineer is not convuluted it does fit perfectly with the Prometheus myth,Peter Weyland or David story arc.
We'll see...
I'm baffled with the various theories with the engineer in reality being David/Weyland/Holloway/Santa Claus, but whatever
It seems to me that some of it, is motivated by disliking the fact that space jockeys are humanoids in suits, coupled with them not being as tall as the jockey in Alien, coupled with the need for convoluted plot twist.
The scene we are talking about, is imo about Shaw (who is religious) essentially facing her God/maker and the terrifying implications of this. Is she about to get raped (again) Lambert style by 'God'?
All this subtext is completely out the window, if it's just a crewmember in an engineer suit.
But I've been wrong before...
someone made Prometheus darker in this trailer, mother f--ker is at it again.
They better not make the final product needlessly dark on IMAX 3D, it better be nice and bright, detailed with solid black colors. I'm tired of these washed out, murky, dark films that rape the directors cinematography.
No humans are not all the same size but the difference in size between the ALIEN jockey and the Prometheus jockeys seems llarger than the difference between say 'little people' and a averge sized man/woman. Maybe thats it, the prometheus jockeys are an outlaw sect of 'little jockeys' who are travelling the universe looking for their pot of gold.
Thanks for your detailed answer
I'm baffled you see it that way but i respect your view
it looks like the jockey's skull alone would come up to a human adult's chest
