Prometheus Viral - "Quiet Eye"



Prometheus gets slightly more mysterious! This viral video message stars Elizabeth Shaw (played by Noomi Rapace), one of the main protagonists in the film. It seems that there is an extra level of continuity to the movie, especially as it seems that the Yutani Corporation (a rival to Weyland Industries in the Alien universe) has a big role in the choice of Elizabeth as a member of the Prometheus crew.

The Prometheus project is run by the Weyland company, so it's a mystery as to why they might be working together. Though the two companies become partners and form the Weyland-Yutani Corporation in later film installments we don't know much about the why. Perhaps it has something to do with a shared skeleton in the space closet?

The video also has a link to Project Prometheus, the official site that allows you to 'Apply' to be part of the Prometheus crew. Though the wait for the movie is somewhat painful at this point we might as well have fun before the excitement really does burst out our chests...
