Fox Releases Official ‘Prometheus’ Synopsis; Ben Foster Joins Cast? Yesterday we saw thepurported synopsisofRidley Scott’sPrometheus, a rundown of the film’s plot that gave away a great deal of the story structure. Assuming, that is, that it was accurate at all. Fox has denied the rundown, and issued in its place what must be the most non-detailed synopsis in movie history.

Jim Sturgess And Kirsten Dunst To Star In Sci-Fi Movie Upside Down I’ve been keeping an eye onJuan Diego Solanas' surreal-sounding sci-fi storyUpside Downfor a while now. The picture has been in development with Onyx films and Studio 37 for a good while, and has never quite got off of the starting blocks – perhaps due to its mind boggling central concept.
