New Behind-The-Scenes ALIEN: COVENANT Image Features Michael Fassbender As David The Android
A new official BTS snap from the set of Alien: Covenant features director Ridley Scott and star Michael Fassbender, who will reprise the role of David 8 from Prometheus. Check it out!
The Alien Anthology Twitter page has posted a new behind-the-scenes image from Alien: Covenant. Director Ridley Scott is the primary focus, but Michael Fassbender (and presumably some of the Covenant crew members) can also be glimpsed.
The X-Men: Apocalypse actor will be returning as David the android (sorry, "artificial person"), who we last saw as a head in a bag at the end of Prometheus. David certainly looks a lot different here than he did in that movie - could it be a completely new model? The droid's creator, perhaps? Or did he just get a new hairstyle? Sound off below and let us know what you think.
“Bound for a remote planet on the far side of the galaxy, the crew of the colony ship Covenant discovers what they think is an uncharted paradise, but is actually a dark, dangerous world — whose sole inhabitant is the ‘synthetic’ David (Michael Fassbender), survivor of the doomed Prometheus expedition.”
Alien: Covenant stars Michael Fassbender, Katherine Waterston, Demien Bichir and Danny McBride, and is set to hit theaters on August 4, 2017.
