Although we already know that Ridley Scott is planning to begin production on Prometheus 2 this fall, it was nice to hear Michael Fassbender confirm that he was involved with the project. When speaking to Collider recently, whilepromoting X-Men: Days of Future Past, he confirmed he was not only going to star in Prometheus 2, but was genuinely excited to do so:
Regarding the specific exchange on Prometheus 2, Steve asked Fassbender if he was looking forward to working with Scott on sequel, and he replied, “For sure. I love Ridley. He’s a master filmmaker,” at which point James McAvoy, who was also part of the interview, turned to Fassbender and asked, “Are you doing a sequel?”
Fassbender turned to his X-Men co-star and replied, “Yeah, but when I don’t know.”
Prometheus 2 was confirmed to begin production this fall with a projected release date of March 4th, 2016.
