My sense is that the assumption that there will be a xenomorph in Prometheus is based off of this guy's "theories": [url=http://www.bleedingcool.com/2011/02/24/prometheus-rumours-unbound-how-the-alien-aliens-factor-in/]bleedingcool.com[/url] However, Ridley Scott himself stated flatly that there will be no xenomorphs in Prometheus: [url=http://thefilmstage.com/news/ridley-scott-talks-xenomorphs-space-jockeys-and-more-for-prometheus/]thefilmstage.com[/url]. Although the author of this article claims that there might be a xenomorph and uses the first link as his "source". Really?!?!

I thought Ridley Scott wants to create a trilogy or two movies back to back and explore others worlds or fears before get to close to the xenomorphs and leave us with many doubts. Like it did with Alien using the same strategy..

I think there will be alien creatures of new varieties. Ridley just didn't want to confuse PROMETHEUS with an ALIEN sequel with heavy duty HALO/AVATAR action. He wants to go back to the slow burn suspense thriller template he started in 1979 ALIEN. So if they mentioned Xenomorph, fans will be jumping up & down: "YEA !!! AVATAR with more gore!" I think Ridley will be absolutely horrified at this reaction, lol!!

I think we'll see some form of the alien. At the end of one of his interviews he was talking about keeping some secrets locked up until the movie comes and then he said and a few things that may be familiar and then he laughed. So what else is familiar from alien, we've seen he jockey ship already, the space jockey (sort of). So I think he's referring to the alien or its lifecycle

I absolutely support Fox decision NOT to reveal the alien life form in the teaser or trailer, not even the FULL trailer. I am hoping the 2nd Trailer (probably during Superbowl Weekend) will reveal more visual teases, not full revelation. The PROMETHEUS teaser has been compared to INCEPTION campaign with its booming horn. Well, the best INCEPTION trailer is the first one, with only close-up images of a spinning top, Leo fully drenched in bathtub, JG Levitt actor fighting in zero gravity, and a shot of Leo waking up, that's it! The movie opened to the tune of $60 million due to the Intrigue Factor alone.

Seems it was a tv series not the dreaded film sharp intake of breath and a sigh of relief.

[font="verdana"]I'm personally very excited about the prospect of what promises to be a geiger-esque 2001. Thats' way more exciting than Alien-Zero or Alien 5, even though i'd watch those too.[/font]

Ridley has stated there will be a 'progenitor' to the xeno as we know it and we will 'recognise strands of alien DNA'. It might not be the xeno from the original and sequels, but it will be something that through either human or Engineer intervention becomes the xeno we know .............

I think we'll see a type of pre-Xenomorph creature, what they originally looked like. . .
