The trailer for Ridley Scott’s Prometheus is due to hit on Thursday, but today on Apple trailers a 30 second preview has dropped has dropped, so you can get a miniature taste of Ridley’s return to sci-fi. The director has also been talking to Filmophilia about the movie, and has cleared up whether we’d see the infamous xenomorph in this movie, which we’ve been promised will be shot through with Alien DNA (many had assumed the HR Giger creatures would pop up right at the end). However Ridley says, “No. Absolutely not. They squeezed it dry. He (the xenomorph) did very well. (He laughs) He survived, he’s now in Disneyland in Orlando, and no way am I going back there. How did he end up in Disneyland? I saw him in Disneyland, Jesus Christ!”
He adds, “There’s a quote I did, a pretty good quote: By the end of the third act you start to realize there’s a DNA of the very first Alien, but none of the subsequent aliens. To tell you what that is is a pity, and I’m not going to tell you, because it’s actually pretty good, pretty organic to the process and to the original. But we go back, we don’t go forward.”
Take a look below for our first taste of this very exciting sci-fi-flick. Prometheus is due for release on June 1st, 2012.
