Hey guys just wondering if this post has been done already on the forum. Anyway, whats your guys' opinion on who should play the next Engineer(s) like what tall actor you think could pull it off. I know that if Daniel James or Ian Whyte did it again so we'd immediately recognize them. I wonder who Ridley Scott or the casting call would bring in to play another Space Jockey? I guess for me it would probably have to be someone thats very tall like over 7 feet to play an Engineer. Get a whole list of guys and maybe even girls if Ridley wants to show their females to be really super tall.

The Anunnaki were on the earth in those days--and also afterward--when the sons of God went to the daughters of humans and had children by them. They were the heroes of old, mighty men of high reno

They could always change the prosthetics to have different facial features and use the same actors.

Yeah I would think the same actors are going to play unless someone , somehow wows them in an audition or something along those lines

Listening the RS comments on the people that played the engineers ( elvis and bob) , he seemed very impressed by them. AT the idea of willis and diesel, at least they wont have to spend to much time on haircuts.

Well they need to be tall so I guess RS could hire a pack of basketball players and change the facial features and behavior....

Its a strange concept but the entire civilization of Engineers may all be facially similar, the males at least and at least the younger more verile types. They may all be similar as they get to old age too if the y even get there. Not sure about the females, we have yet to see how the Engineers socienty truely functions. If indeed it even does so anymore, by conventional means at least (i.e) obviously males and females coupling. I wonder if Shaw is going to end up being the key to their salvation in some ways if the Engineers are somehow in fertile or the entire civilization has collapsed and the females were vanquished somehow then it stands to reason why they would go into hybernation until a cure was found, if that is indeed what has happened to them in the distant past.

Ricky Gervais. I hope if there to be more the Engies, they will be much more frightening along with other tall entities beyond description. Epic is wonderful, but they should move up a gear or three with the scares I think.

See, I've NEVER understood this cinema-trenches aspect of the Prometheus movie; the one where you have to hire a REALLY TALL basketball player (and stand him on a box) to play the roll of a giant i) he wasn't even as tall as he should have been i.e. 4-5 meters and ii) he couldn't act. For me, use THE TECHNIQUES OF MODERN CINEMATOGRAPHY as they did with the final ChestHugger scene, i.e. seamless.

They don't have to be giants to look the part. Look what Peter Jackson did in Lord of the Rings to make normal sized people look like halflings or what Disney did 50+ years ago in Darby O'Gill and the Little People to create the Leprechauns.

Totally true @malex234, Ian Whyte is fine, but they can also include other actors and use camera tricks to make them look taller.

I agree on that one Darby O'Gill is a movie I haven't seen in a very long time its even got Sean Connery in it too.

What about getting people that are really super tall that aren't basketball players? Just get other unknown actors from different countries. Like they did with Alien, the African Massai guy he was really awesome as the creature.
