Michael Fassbender is proving he can be an astonishing actor even when his clothes are on in a new viral video for his upcoming film Prometheus. In the clip Fassbender plays an android named David and explains not only his various functions but also why androids are in some ways superior to humans. Typical sci-fi stuff so far.

It gets even more sci-fi and suspenseful when android David remarks, "I can do almost anything that can be asked of me. I can carry out directives that my human counterparts might find distressing or unethical." Creepy.

Take a peek at the video, and Fassbender creepily smelling flowers, above. Fassbender is the only lead character in the film without a last name according to IMDb so it is likely the other actors, including Charlize Theron, Noomi Rapace and Guy Pearce, will in fact be human. Or will they? Dun Dun Dun!

Prometheus will be released June 8 and, as this is the second viral video following Pearce's character's TED talk, we are likely in store for more videos featuring Theron, Rapace and Logan Marshall-Green.
