Okay, so a bit of news has surfaced on BloodyDisgusting that Ian Whyte (aka. guy who played the Predator in Alien vs. Predator and Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem) may be playing one of the Space jockeys in Ridley Scott’s Prometheus film. From the trailer we saw last week, the “Space Jockey”, or “Engineer” humanoid seen in this still could be who Ian will be portraying, based on the fact that the humanoid creature seen in the trailer was rather massive compared to a normal person and also looked rather “human” in nature.

“In Twentieth Century Fox’s Prometheus, arriving in theaters June 8, one of these Space Jockeys is referred to as “The Engineer”. While there are said to be multiple engineers, Bloody Disgusting can exclusively report that Ian Whyte will portray one of them. He will soon be referred to as our “creator” or “God”… Whyte also worked in costume as the Predator in both Alien vs. Predator films. We’ll hopefully have more soon as there are quite a bit of interesting rumors surrounding this casting. We’ll work on confirming before we report back.” – BloodyDisgusting

Now, I have seen this link pop up on a number of sites today, and it’s a link to a YouTube video where someone has taken bits of the original Alien film and sorted them in a way  to match the Prometheus trailer. I must say, after seeing this, I was impressed. A very well done tribute. Have a look below:
