It’s a day that ends in “y,” so we’ve got more Alien: Covenant goodies!
The folks over on Entertainment Weekly are rounding out the week with two new images from Ridley Scott’s Prometheus sequel/Alien prequel, which is less than a month away from spewing Xenomorph acid all over your local theater. In the first image, Fassbender’s Walter (I think?) is examining *something*. In the second, Fassbender’s David (I think?) is dropping bombs.
Dropping bombs on what/who, you ask? Well, that’s kind of a huge spoiler, but you can read all about that scene if you desire. David is a jerk. We wonder if Walter is any better.
Check out the new images below.
Katherine Waterston stars with Michael Fassbender returning as Prometheus‘ android David (and Walter), with a crew that includes Demian Bichir and Danny McBride (“Eastbound and Down”), as well as Alex England (Gods of Egypt), Billy Crudup, Amy Seimetz (A Horrible Way to Die, “The Killing”), Jussie Smollett (“Empire”), Carmen Ejogo, and Callie Hernandez (Machete Kills). James Franco also has a role, which was confirmed in this short film.
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 takes off for Paradise on May 19, 2017.
