BE prepared for some very scary encounters of the third kind this summer when Ridley Scott’s Prometheus hits our screens.

A new trailer arrived online yesterday and while we’re not experts, we’re sensing only bad things can come from touching that alien goo?

The sci-fi flick takes place in the same universe as Scott’s 1979 film Alien and follows the crew of the Prometheus spaceship in the year 2085 as they explore an alien civilisation.

The film boasts a stellar line-up including Charlize Theron, Michael Fassbender, Guy Pearce, Noomi Repace and Brit actor Idris Elba.

Prometheus lands on June 1. We’ll be booking our tickets, will you?
