Michael Fassbender Isn't Only Playing David In Alien: Covenant

Michael Fassbender was one of the best things in Prometheus. His dangerously curious David was the driving force behind a lot of the film's action and is more or less what I'm most excited about seeing continue into Alien: Covenant.

While David is confirmed for a return in the sequel, it seem Fassbender will be splitting his duties. Speaking to The Irish Times (via @rorysbooks), the actor confirmed he was also taking up the role of a new android called Walter.

I am allowed to say I am playing two robots — Walter and David. I think what's great about it is that Ridley has gone back to the DNA of Alien, the horror element of that. But it also has the scope and scale of Prometheus. Ridley has it already. He is a machine. He is such an incredible human being and he was in such good form. He is such an imaginative and mischievous figure.

There is not much more to go on here, but one would assume he has quite a different personality to David. I can't wait to see this film in action. Hopefully we will get a glimpse before too long.
