Daily Mail Uk reports that three British actors; Idris Elba, Sean Harris and Kate Dickie—have joined Ridley Scott's Prometheus in unknown roles.



Elba will be best known to CBMers as playing Roque in The Losers as well as Heimdell in Marvel's upcoming Thor of course. Harris you may recognize from Harry Brown with Michael Caine, or from the original Red Riding trilogy with Andrew Garfield. Scottish actress Dickie will most likely not be well known to US readers but she starred in the bleakly brilliant Red Road in the UK.

The Mail also have some quotes from Director Scott, who hints that any supposed leaked script details may well be premature. And gives a cryptic hint at the plot..

I was insistent that the script not leak onto the internet, where it gets dissected out of context, which spoils it for everyone..

‘It’s the story of creation, the gods and the man who stood against them. It’s not a small film,’


Scott also says that they begin filming in 3 weeks at Pinewood Studios. Prometheus hits theaters on June 8th, 2012.
