'Prometheus 2' Release Date 2016, Cast News Michael Fassbender & Noomi Rapace Returning

The Prometheus 2 release date has been set for March 4, 2016 after Prometheus was a box office hit.

Check out their official website for more details HERE. 

Michael Fassbender gushed with Collider Ridley Scott sharing, "I love Ridley. He's a master filmmaker."

Rotten Tomatoes mentioned that "Ridley Scott's ambitious quasi-prequel to Alien may not answer all of its big questions, but it's redeemed by its haunting visual grandeur and compelling performances-particularly Michael Fassbender as a fastidious android."

Prometheus 2 is said to be a prequel to the 1979 film called Alien which Paglen has already finished writing, according to reports. The original Prometheus movie which was released in Summer of 2012, was a huge box office success with gross earnings of $400 million at the box office. This has the production team putting in some serious effort to ensure the sequel's success as they know it can be a huge hit that the fans are waiting for if they make it great.

Prometheus 2 was originally set for a release date in 2015 but was pushed back to 2016 after screenwriter Damon Lindelof left the project to work on Brad Bird's sci-fi film Tomorrowland. Ridley Scott was also working on the crime thriller The Counselor and the Moses epic movie Exodus.

Prometheus 2 is currently set to begin filming this Fall with Ridley Scott having been scouting possible shooting locations in Australia. The script written by Jack Paglen and having been re-worked by Michael Green more recently.
