QuotePrometheus looks to be the most unmissable film of 2012. It has the potential to vitalize the most wonderful [and judging from most of the recent films misused] sci-fi series around and with Ridley Scott at the helm and seemingly aggressively making his first big genre stamp in a long time it'll at least be intriguing. It'll be amazing, that's my guess. Fassbender. Elba. Amazing. Rapace... the jury is still out. Theron, case by case. But Fassbender and Elba are masters. And I just got an email sent to me from someone going by the name Brain Blessed that purports this juicy potential:
Guy Pearce. In an Alien movie. If true, what an amazing possibility. I have had the privilege of watching the man act and seen the Blue Collar work ethic he brings (ie: driving himself to set, being there early, and forging friendships with everyone) and as anyone whose seen his work on the big screen can attest: He improves anything he's associated with.
Here's an excerpted clip from the email, with some things changed to protect:
"Evening Nick, my mate is working on Prometheus as OMITTED and met Guy Pierce on set today. She's previously worked on OMITTED, OMITTED and OMITTED and I've no reason to believe she's lying. I've not read anywhere about Guy being cast so thought it might interest you."
Look, I don't know the emailer. It could be a huge ball of bullshit. It could be a joke.
But it could be true and it could be amazing. I've got some feelers out to see if we can get hard evidence but for now cross your fingers and remember where you heard it first.
Please be true.
Agreed, this would make it even more unmissable.

Dear God please be true!
If this is true, then I will start to give a crap about this movie.
The Hurt Locker style cameo, or a leading role?
...Space jockey?
Please please please.
And he will be a Colonial Marine.

Watched Memento for the first time last week, the guy does great work. Certainly gets my vote if he's in :)
I think Guy Pearce is one of the best actors working today. Animal Kingdom was fantastic. And, I love L.A. Confidential, Memento, The Proposition, and even his miniature part in The Hurt Locker.
I sure hope this true.
He's working with Charlize Theron too, in The Road. Though, they never shared any screen time!
Please be true.
I loved his work in The Count of Monte Cristo.
I think he'd be a great addition to Prometheus.
He is a talented actor, definitely a great addition to the cast. I could see him as the ships Captain or military officer on board. I hope its not just a supporting role or cameo, but a lead.
Ooh, same kind'a role as Tom Skerritt, I could dig it.
If he's on board it can only be good news,personally im very impressed with the cast so far
I hope all these fameous actors will be killed in the movie...naaah that is unbelievable. I started to think about that is good or not?
Alien killed off the only recognisable actors. Don't see why this wouldn't.
I hope Scott does not repeat Alien by killing off the whole cast and making the android played by Fassenbender the antagonist again. The story should be told differently with multiple survivors and go from there. Not just follow the heroine, but multiple characters the audiance relates and roots for.
If this is true it would be awesome :o 8)
But i would also love to see Timothy Olyphant as a colonial marine someday he will fit the role perfectly :)
Guy Pearce? Hope this is true. :)
This is great, Guy Pearce is a fantastic actor!
What? 'Mike' from Neighbours in an Alien movie - no way!
Where's Teddy? ;)
Holy crap. I dunno about everybody else but, I am so satisfied with everything I am hearing about this so far. Everything, even a lot of the rumor mill stuff all point to this thing being on the right track. I have yet to hear ANY news that makes this thing sound even remotely dissappointing.
If this Ilatest news about Guy Pearce IS true, what we have here is one seriously exceptional cast.
All I need to hear now is who is scoring.
He is militairy if he is in it. ;D
Yep, he would be a great addition to the flick. Hope it´s true. And I could even imagine him as an android.

Now
that would be interesting.
I hope he is in the movie. He was awesome in "Two Brothers" (2004) and LA: Confidential back in 1997. The only bad movie that was in "The Time Machine" (2002).

Confirmed: Guy Pearce Joins Ridley Scott's 'Prometheus'
http://blogs.indiewire.com/theplaylist/archives/2011/05/02/confirmed_guy_pearce_joins_ridley_scotts_prometheus/# (http://blogs.indiewire.com/theplaylist/archives/2011/05/02/confirmed_guy_pearce_joins_ridley_scotts_prometheus/#)
He's now confirmed!
http://blogs.indiewire.com/theplaylist/archives/confirmed_guy_pearce_joins_ridley_scotts_prometheus/ (http://blogs.indiewire.com/theplaylist/archives/confirmed_guy_pearce_joins_ridley_scotts_prometheus/)
Rumors had been flying around for the past few days about Guy Pearce taking a role in Ridley Scott's highly anticipated and top-secret "Prometheus" after CHUD caught wind of some intel from their sources. We put in a few calls and it turns out that morsel of info is bang on.
The Playlist has confirmed with reps for the actor, that Guy Pearce has joined "Prometheus." There's no word yet on what his role in the film is, but he's joining an already solid cast in the film that both is and isn't a direct prequel to "Alien"—essentially, it will take place in the same world with some connective DNA stringing the two films together, but how much more than that remains to be seen.
Pearce joins Noomi Rapace, Michael Fassbender, Charlize Theron, Idris Elba, Sean Harris, Kate Dickie, Rafe Spall and Logan Marshall-Green in the film that is currently in the midst of a six-month shoot that started in Toronto and is currently in front of cameras on soundstages in London. The film will hit theaters on June 8, 2012.
Edit: Dang, ninja'd. :'(
I'm so glad this is true. :'(
I double jizzed in my pants.
Excellent! Well hopefully he has a significant role :)

...android, android, android, android............ ;)
For some reason I feel that it is likely that Pearce is either playing an android or a Colonial Marine.
Time to yodel my pleasure from a mountain top. Excellent.
great news, also great news that scotts been playing with us and the film still precedes Alien. (just not an absolute direct prequel)
this is awesome. time to get excited! ;D
Excellent, I'm now officially down for lining up for a midnight screening.
Confirmation on IGN:

Ha, cool!
f**k yes I am looking forward to this movie.
A colonial marine? Lol.....get over it, he isn't. Either people like writing 'colonial marine' or this is just fanboy wishful hoping. Hilarious stuff.
There was already a statement in 2010 that there was a role being sought out for a colonial marine general; and this was when Lindelof was already attached to the project. It's not like I'm entirely spouting crap out of my ass. It's still a possibility.

Please be true.
It's been confirmed, he's going to be in the film.
And I don't really care whom he'll portray.
Great to see he is in the movie. I'm still not very hype up for the movie once I see some photos and a trailer for the movie.
Fassbender, Pearce, Elba. ;D
I really hope Pearce has a substantial role in the film. Got a feeling its just another cameo though. Plays a Weyland exec on Earth who sends Noomi and the crew off on their mission or something like that.
