Damon Lindelof is very close to cementing himself as a true geek god. In addition to being one of the co-creators of Lost, he also had his hand in the incredible J.J. Abrams Star Trek reboot in 2009, on which he served as producer. Only helping is the fact that he was asked by Ridley Scott, the iconic director of Alien and Blade Runner, to script the long-awaited Alien prequel. The project, of course, eventually became the original entity known as Prometheus and yesterday I had the chance to sit down with Lindelof to talk about the project.

In town with Charlize Theron to present the film's first footage to the eager crowds in Hall H (you can read all about that HERE) I had the chance to sit down with the writer/producer and talk at length about the new project. Check out the video interview below in which we discuss the secretive nature of his most recent work, what it's like to see his words come to life during the production phase and how the story evolved from being an original piece to being Prometheus. Check it out!
