Teaser videos for Prometheus trailer

Prometheus

Prometheus posteriTunes Trailers and Alien Prequel News have released two new videos counting down to the release of the official Prometheus trailer online this Thursday.

“I’m thrilled to be doing another science fiction”, muses Scott in the videos. “It’s epic…It’s about the very grand ideas and notions, the surprising things that will appear to be small, yet will be enormous”.

Synopsis: 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.

We’ll let you decide how much Alien DNA you think is in these films. We say lots. For example, is this guy taking some familiar acid to the face?

Prometheus opens in 3D on 8 June 2012 from Fox.
