Watch Michael Fassbender Smell Flowers in ‘Prometheus’ Viral Ad
by Dino-Ray Ramos on Apr 17, 2012 • 2:30 pm No CommentsPrometheus has gone from being a mysterious Ridley Scott project to a full blown sci-fi monger’s wet dream. In addition to all those teaser trailers, international trailers, teaser photos, and other hullabaloo, there have been plenty of viral campaigns linked to the may-maybe-not prequel to Aliens.
First there was Guy Pearce posing as the CEO of the film’s fictitious Weyland Corporation doing a TEDTalk in 2023. That was pretty cool:
Then there’s this — an eerie and convincing viral ad of Michael Fassbender as David 8, a concierge of sorts for the ship in the film. Watch it and be amazed:
You too can own your own pretty Michael Fassbender in android form. He does it all: plays chess, sheds a single tear when needed, plays chess, talks in a creepily soothing voice AND you can smell flowers with him!
Remember when I interviewed Michael Fassbender? That was fun. I wonder if he was an android back then.
