Charlize Theron: 'Prometheus' Covers 'Entertainment Weekly'

Charlize Theron, Michael Fassbender, and Noomi Rapace take the cover of this week’s issue of Entertainment Weekly, on newsstands May 11.

Here is what the Prometheus cast had to share with the mag:

Michael on the film’s plot: “There’s definitely a link to Alien. There are creatures in it that you’ll recognize, but that’s only one tiny facet of what’s going on.”

Charlize on her minor role in the film: “I’d rather be a smaller character in a great film than the lead in a s—ty movie.”

Noomi on the connection to Alien: “I remember when I first saw Alien, it was the first time I ever saw a woman that strong. I thought ‘Oh my God, who is this woman?’ Sigourney Weaver was my hero.”
