No, it's a shot from the film and it's not in the book. My source is the best Prometheus blog on the net imo. [url=http://ridleygrams.tumblr.com/]2012:A Space Odyssey[/url]

As I pointed out in another thread there's quite a bit of evidence to support the idea that there's a lot more to the extended cut than Scott and Fox are letting on. It's a long story so I'm just going to quote my other post... "KoH"=Kingdom of Heaven [i]Not sure how versed some of you are in the 2 versions of KoH but there are huge differences. As in they HAD TO SHOOT THE FILM 2 WAYS. In KoH the Queen Sybilla character has no son yet in the KoH DC she does. This is more than a mere insignificant character that could just be cut out or left in without being noticed. They actually shot scenes with the son and shot them without the son. The son actually changed the story depending on if he was there or not. There's a lot more to it and a lot more to the DC than just that but it's a bit hard to explain. Basically, with the evidence of how Scott demanded to shoot 2 versions of KoH even though the studio thought the son's story "went off on a tangent" and pretty much made Scott take it out of the film(this is Fox too btw) coupled with the shots of Weyland being on the Prometheus BEFORE his reveal in the theatrical cut and the presence of the Elder Engineer leads me to believe that there's a lot more to the "extended cut" than Fox and Scott are letting on.[/i]

not two but EIGHT elders. [url=http://mikephilbin.blogspot.co.uk/2012/06/prometheus-elder-engineer-bloody.html]IMAGE HERE[/url] [b]Other comment:[/b] ELDERS? i.e why was Peter Weyland looking for EVERLASTING LIFE solution from [b]people who get old[/b]? Could this be why Scott kept 'these decrepits' out of his movie? And went for the everlasting alabaster beauty of the Engineers? Unfettered by Age Concerns? :)
