The viral marketing campaign for Ridley Scott's upcoming sci-fi epic PROMETHEUS began today with the launch of the WeylandIndustries.com website and this viral video depicting a speech from its founder, Peter Weyland (portrayed by Guy Pearce). Set at a future TED conference in the year 2023, Weyland is on the verge of changing the world with his technological advances in human-like robotics. The viral video, conceived by Ridley Scott and screenwriter Damon Lindelof and directed by Luke Scott, also sets up the conceptual theme of mankind learning forbidden and possibly dangerous knowledge at the heart of the plot in PROMETHEUS, opening in theaters this June.
