Guy Pearce Confirms Role in Prometheus

There's been a little dispute as to whether or not Guy Pearce was actually cast in Prometheus, although we can put that discussion to rest now. During a recent interview, Guy Pearce confirmed he appears in the film and spoke about his brief role:

"I'm only [in the film] for a minute, but it was a real honor to work with Ridley [Scott], to see what was going on... I think Michael Fassbender, Noomi Rapace and Charlize Theron and everybody will do a really spectacular job."

Another actor who is in the film and has only a cameo role is Patrick Wilson. We're curious as to how many other actors have cameo roles and how they fit into the film. Are these company men on Earth that interact with the crew before they take off? Will we only see them on video screens when the crew is traveling through space? Or are they playing a non-human role? We'll find out on June 8th.

Prometheus is directed by Ridley Scott and stars Noomi Rapace, Michael Fassbender, Charlize Theron, and Idris Elba.

“Ridley Scott, director of ‘Alien’ and ‘Blade Runner,’ returns to the genre he helped define. With ‘Prometheus’ he creates a groundbreaking mythology in which a team of explorers discover a clue to the origins of mankind on Earth, leading them on a thrilling journey to the darkest corners of the universe. There they must fight a terrifying battle to save the future of the human race.”
