Michael Fassbender has confirmed he will be returning for Prometheus 2.

Fassbender played creepy android David, and was probably the best thing about Ridley Scott’s unofficial Alien prequel, Prometheus.

But before Fass fans get their hopes up, the Irish actor admitted that he has no idea when the follow up will start filming.

When asked by film site Collider if he was looking forward to working with Scott again, Michael said: ‘For sure. I love Ridley. He’s a master filmmaker.’


His X-Men: Days Of Future Past co-star James McAvoy then asked if a sequel was really happening, to which Michael replied ‘Yeah, but when I don’t know.’



Michael is currently doing the promo rounds for Bryan Singer’s latest X-Men film, which rolls out on May 22. He reprises his X-Men: First Class role of a young Magneto, while McAvoy plays Charles Xavier (later Professor X).

Prometheus 2 is believed to be scheduled for release in March 2016, avoiding competition with other summer blockbusters including Batman v Superman, Captain America 3 and X-Men: Apocalypse.
