Entertainment Weekly has shared a new Alien: Romulus publicity still of David Jonsson as Andy in a short interview with the actor. The interview is a snippet of a feature that is being handed out for free to attendees at San Diego Comic Con this weekend. The new still looks to be a tighter shot and an alternative expression of a still we’ve seen previously.
David Jonsson didn’t know what movie script he was reading when he dug into Alien: Romulus ahead of his audition. His initial reaction? “I thought it was absolutely amazing, so intricate and detailed,” the British actor tells Entertainment Weekly. “And then I found out it was Alien.”
Jonsson also talks what he found most interesting about his character Andy, and when asked about if he looked to Ian Holm or Michael Fassbender for inspiration on how to portray Andy, he told EW:
It’s kind of hard to compete with them, which I’m not trying to do at all — I just wouldn’t do that. But it’s amazing to be in that company, and it was amazing to be a first in the franchise, for a young Black man to play an android. It’s such a fine detail that we’re really kind of leaning into. We’re definitely trying to make it our own. There’s something different in Andy.
