The Alien Anthology Twitter account is one to look out for. Not only do they post all sorts of neat things from previous Alien films, but they’ve been giving all new looks at the upcoming Alien: Covenant.
Here’s one picture that fans of Prometheus may enjoy:

As you can see, it depicts Ridley Scott directing a scene for the all-new Covenant, and one of the interesting things about it is that actor Michael Fassbender, who played David in Prometheus, is shown in the background. Although he’s definitely had a change in appearance – his hairstyle and color has changed along with the fact he has a body again.
Although not totally surprising, it does make me question whether or not it’s the David from Prometheus or a completely different David android from the Covenant expedition. Hopefully more will be revealed at the upcoming Comic-Con next month, or at the very least, when the movie hits theaters on August 4, 2017.
Prometheus synopsis: The discovery of a clue to mankind’s origins on Earth leads a team of explorers to the darkest parts of the universe. Two brilliant young scientists lead the expedition. Shaw (Noomi Rapace) hopes that they will meet a race of benevolent, godlike beings who will in some way verify her religious beliefs, while Holloway (Logan Marshall-Green) is out to debunk any spiritual notions. However, neither the scientists nor their shipmates are prepared for the unimaginable terrors that await them.
