Elba Says Prometheus Is Depending On Secrecy !

The Wire star Elba revealed in an interview with Huffington Post that the movie depended on the secrecy surrounding it. He said: 'This particular film - Twentieth Century Fox and Ridley Scott have been very, very diligent about keeping a lid on it. But, I know exactly why - because the film depends on that. It needs that. It needs you to not know. 'See, if you told me, even though people think they want to know, they don't really want to know.' Elba added: 'Because it's a shocker, isn't it? It's a shocker and the anticipation of a great filmmaker like Ridley Scott is part of the draw. 'Like, what is he going to do next? What's that about? And the more he cloaks it in, "There's something I can't tell you yet," it makes it more intriguing. 'And anyone that has that shortcut, "Well, I heard it was this," it's cheating.'
