MemberFacehugger01/18/2012MTV caught up with Guy Pearce at the Golden Globe awards and he had this to say...
[url=http://moviesblog.mtv.com/2012/01/18/guy-pearce-confirms-his-role-in-prometheus/]Pearce's comment[/url]
Now, I'm guessing he is one of the crew because, if you agree this is Pearce in these pictures from the trailer preview 1 and the trailer itself, he is clearly wearing a space suit. Interesting question is if he is part of the crew and is only in for a minute, what happens to him? Or maybe he is not "part of the crew", but how do you account for the space suit? And then again, "I'm only there for a minute" could mean 28 minutes, like Katie Dickie. :-)

MemberOvomorph01/18/2012Fuck I hate MTV blocking videos in the UK...BASTARDS!
Anyway...erm I'm not sure. In one of the original leaked scripts/plots/rumours one of the crew gets his leg ripped off by a creature in/around the ample room. In one of the leaked trailers we see something jumping from one of the crew to another. So I'm guessing Pierce and/or Holloway gets totalled by some sort of creature. I'd imagine he'll get killed pretty early when the crew first enter the ample room.

MemberOvomorph01/18/2012Indeed:
Confirmed by this?:

MemberOvomorph01/18/2012So maybe hes the only one with glasses ...and that carry us to say that hes him in the red lasers scene ( and hes near the mohawk guy ...that spell bad ending )
OF course you dont hire him if the scene is not pretty important ( like it was in the hurt locker ) BUT anyway im very disappointed because hes a so great actor ..... will i end to like more a popcorn movie like MS:One than Prometheus ? we will see ..
Theusprom
MemberOvomorph01/18/2012I am not sure that is him in the picture.
I think he will play the benefactor of the mission and in heavy prosthetics to look old, maybe only at the start of the movie before the mission sets out.
I always took that fella in pain to be Benedict Wong.

MemberOvomorph01/18/2012i did though was rafe spall ... but anyway we will see ... yes he can be also the weyland big boss

Frantz, you friggin genius that does look alot like Rafe Spall!Can definately make him out in the laser picture, where he is squinting.
Mentos
MemberOvomorph01/18/2012[b]@Membrane:[/b] No problem. Also; that's quite a brilliant explanation for the red lasers, I've never heard that mentioned before AND it makes a lot of sense.
[b]@Frantz and @Theresprom[/b] it is him gents, take a closer look at his eyes, you can clearly see his glasses (matched by the first pictures posted).
I've also just screen shot this from the 1080p trailer:
[IMG]http://i1121.photobucket.com/albums/l507/mentos26/Untitled-2.png[/IMG]
This is the crew member standing next to the guy that gets hit in the face with acid. I'm not sure about you guys but I just make out a pair of glasses on his face.
I'm guessing:
*The alarms trip
*Beardy man gets hit by the pre-facehugger
*He falls to the ground
*Pierce goes to his aid
*Pre-face hugger jumps from Beardy man to Pierce

MemberOvomorph01/18/2012@Mentos
I am still not so sure.
The interweb states Guy Pearce is 5'10" but in that first picture he towers above the rest.Rafe Spall however, is 6'3".If that is Guy Pearce, Noomi Rapace must be around 5'
I do agree with the laser idea though, is this what can eviscerate them in a heartbeat I wonder?
Membrane
MemberFacehugger01/18/2012Theusprom, I've read she is 5'4". And when Scott was asked about Rapace being like Weaver (Shaw vs. Ripley), Scott said "Yeah, I mean, they’re quite different women. Sigourney, to start with, is 6’1’’ in stocking feet, and Noomi insists that she is 5’1’’ in stocking feet." So, Pearce would be about 9" taller than Rapace and that picture would then make sense (he could also be standing on something).

MemberOvomorph01/18/2012Membrane, very true he could be standing on something, but why would he be?Also, Pearce is only two inches taller than Scott, but it looks a lot more in that picture.
I just don't get the point of casting an actor like Guy Pearce only for him to get wiped out very quickly, unless like the Hurt Locker, it has a bearing on the story.
Membrane
MemberFacehugger01/18/2012[b]Mentos[/b], I lightened up the picture and do see what could be glasses. So, does Pearce (I've seen his character called Stannison on imdb) get it at the same time as Marshall-Green (character named Holloway)? Interesting...

MemberOvomorph01/19/2012[b]@Theresprom[/b] here is a picture Frantz posted a while back:

It's definitely Pierce in the first shot!
Also: this thread is worth a look when putting names to faces: [url=http://www.prometheus-movie.com/community/forums/topic/440]Who Am I (By @Biomechanic)[/url]
AND...after a second viewing of the trailer, I think those lasers are scanners. I think the humans are mapping the layout of the tunnels. And I think the Ridley refers to the Alien DNA/pre-facehugger when he talks about evisceration.
Andrew Ryan
MemberOvomorph01/19/2012I don't think that the red laser is from the human crew. It is originating from the ceiling. Plus Guy Pierce (or whoever it is) is looking up at the source of the light as though he is surprised. My interpretation is that the crew is exploring and sets off some sort of alarm and defense mechanism, resulting in acid-helmet dude.
Could the same defense mechanism have taken out the dead jockey on the floor in the ampule room seen in the promo pics? Hmmm . . . .

MemberOvomorph01/19/2012wow....seriously...that is NOT Guy Pearce in the glasses - its Rafe Spall - END OF TOPIC!
Membrane
MemberFacehugger01/19/2012[b]@Tyrannosaurus[/b], The guy in the top picture between Rapace and Scott is Guy Pearce, I'm fairly certain. However, you may be right that the one in the lower picture is Rafe Spall.

I would say there is pretty good cause to think it may not be Guy. Looks like it could be either one to me.
Very similar mouth, nose and chin features. Although the upper lip portion looks more like Spalls. The curve is more straight where-as Guys is more pronounced.
Tyrannosaurus
MemberOvomorph01/19/2012and then there is always the TOOL who tries to act tough behind a keyboard, like Mentos....
do you think that is intimidating or makes you sound intelligent to INSULT me?
i didn't attack anyone, i simply stated that the dude in the GLASSES is NOT Guy Pearce. try looking at a photo of him or watching one of his movies, it's NOT him in the glasses.
it is RAFE SPALL.
oh and to the D-Bag, Mentos - no i am not blind or mentally impaired and i really wish i was as cool and intimidating as you
Tyrannosaurus
MemberOvomorph01/19/2012oh and mr. super smart Mentos : try SPELLING his name correctly next time, too
Membrane
MemberFacehugger01/19/2012[b]@MindBender[/b], I guess time will tell who that might be.
[b]@Tyrannosaurus[/b], I'm guessing [b]Mentos[/b]' reaction is to a couple things you typed, namely, "wow....seriously" and "END OF TOPIC". It's possible that response could be construed as to coming from someone who thinks they know it all. But that's just a guess.

MemberOvomorph01/19/2012Tyrannosaurus, I believe you might be coming across a bit arrogant in this also. Stating things like they are facts and following it up with things like "wow, seriously," is only going to give people the idea you are getting upset. The last thing we need is forum police but if you want people to take your views seriously, you need to present them in a way that is not off putting.
Tyrannosaurus
MemberOvomorph01/19/2012its as simple as looking at Rafe Spall's photo or movies and Guy Pearce's photos or movies...
if Mentos was offended by me saying "wow, seriously" - then i would call that hypersensetive... also, he is the JERK that hides behind a keyboard and CALLS ME BLIND AND MENTALLY IMPAIRED - yeah that's def not as bad as me saying, "wow, end of topic"
we are ALL Alien geeks / fans and i have NO intention of starting behind-a-computer-screen-fight with anyone.
i come on here to SEE EVERYONE'S opinion... this discussion about GLASSES MAN being Guy Pearce is worn-out.... it's Rafe Spall wearing the glasses.
apologies to anyone offended by "wow, seriously"
Biomechanic
MemberOvomorph01/19/2012Tyrannosaurus, My first impression of you is that you came here to belittle the opinion of others not to "SEE EVERYONE'S opinion...". If you thought the subject was worn out why did you even comment? I think you need to grow up a bit and show some respect to the other members.
Mentos
MemberOvomorph01/19/2012[b]@Membrane and @MindBender[/b] hit the nail on the head pretty much, your post was at best irritating. If you think the guy in glasses is Ralf Spall then post some bloody evidence, don't harp on like an eleven year old. This forum revolves around constructed debates, and interesting ideas. Each one of your posts should bring something new to the table, not attempt to end a discussion.
I admit my post was a little hard edged and for that apologise, I was just irritated by your comments. And for you information, I'm not trying to act tough; how would I benefit from it? Furthermore don't call me out on a single spelling mistake when your grammar and punctuation is on the whole less than sub-par.
[Also [b]@Mindbender, would you mind re-posting your pic? For some reason it seems to be unavailable/blocked.[/b]

I can see a lot of feature matches between these faces.

and here's a pic of Rafe Spall - I can see even morefeature matches... including the same glasses
