Michael Fassbender](Michael Fassbender | Moviefone) (of ‘Inglourious Basterds’ fame) is in talks to star in Ridley Scott’s ‘Prometheus’](Prometheus (2012) - Movie | Moviefone) opposite Noomi Rapace (of ‘The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo’ fame).
According to a report at Variety, Fassbender was considering several roles, including Universal’s ‘Snow White and the Huntsman.’
‘Prometheus,’ which began as a prequel to ‘Alien’ and is now a stand-alone sci-fi project, also was moved by Fox from a March 9, 2012 release date to June 8, ostensibly to avoid conflicts with Disney’s sci-fi opus ‘John Carter of Mars.’
