20th Century Fox has released the first Michael Fassbender‘s Alien: Covenant set photo. Also in picture, featured the most prominent, is director Ridley Scott. There is a woman in the photo as well. Fox has disclosed if she is an actor in the film or a crew member. The set photograph was released the official Alien Facebook page. It would seem Michael Fassbender’s David, in part or in whole, survived past the end to Prometheus.

Many already knew this from casting news. There was always speculation on whether or not Michael Fassbender and Naomi Rapace would actually appear in the sequel. When Fox released the official plot synopsis, potential viewers knew that at least one of them would. Will we see Naomi Rapace in the film via flashbacks? One hopes so.

Alien: Covenant also stars Katherine Waterston, Jussie Smollett, Danny McBride, Callie Hernandez, Demian Bichir, Jussie Smollett, Carmen Ejogo, Billy Crudup, and Amy Seimetz.

Alien: Covenant‘s plot synopsis: “Set as the second chapter in a prequel trilogy that began with Prometheus, Alien: Covenant connects directly to Ridley Scott’s 1979 seminal work of science fiction. It begins with the colony ship Covenant, bound for a remote planet on the far side of the galaxy. There, the crew discovers what they think is an uncharted paradise, but is actually a dark, dangerous world — whose sole inhabitant is the ‘synthetic’ David, survivor of the doomed Prometheus expedition.”
