Comic Con is now firmly in full swing, with the latest must-see panel involved legendary helmer Ridley Scott, talking up his new Michael Fassbender starring movie, Prometheus.
The Hollywood Reporter was there and described what they saw: "The footage teased a star-spanning epic with massive sets, mystery, distrust and maybe (hopefully) horror. There was a shot of Charlize Theron telling someone to stay back, then obliterating the person with a flamethrower. Next came a spaceship, looking puny as it streaked past a massive planet, and an astronaut walking past a wall of alien hieroglyphics. A room full of alien pods reminiscent of Scott's landmark Alien film appeared, then several shots of Noomi Rapace, Michael Fassbender (with bleached blond hair) and Idris Elba." Scott spoke to the audience via a live feed from the productions Iceland set and revealed that the film would more than likely be PG-13, but that he was preparing for an R-rated flick as well to "give himself options." He also said that he was shooting in 3D spewing, "I’ll never work without it again," adding that "It opens up the universe even for the small scenes."
Comic Con still has a few more days to run with similarly epic panels.
