"The biggest difference is how much time you get to make every scene absolutely right. I recently played in a new Steve McQueen movie ("Shame"), and the whole shoot took five weeks. Prometheus is going to take four months. In the McQueen movie we shot 20 pages of the script a day. In Prometheus we're shooting just one page a day. And one of the first things you notice is how many people there are all over the place on set. There are so many people!"

"I'm very impressed with her (Noomi Rapace) work ethic. She's extremely serious about her work and very dedicated. It's quite obvious how talented she is. I watched some of her films recently, including The Girl with a Dragon Tattoo and it was fantastic. I didn't expect the film to be so good."

"It's a privilege to work with someone like Ridley Scott in a huge movie like this. He doesn't settle for anything but the very best."
