MUMBAI: If things go according to plans of Fox Star Studios India, Michael Fassbender and Ridley Scott will visit the country before the release of Prometheus.

An upcoming science fiction, the film is the story about how the crew of the spaceship Prometheus is sent on a scientific expedition to follow the map that is discovered within the imagery of Aztec, Mesopotamian and Magdalenian cultures as part of its mission to find the origins of mankind.

Exploring the advanced civilisation of an extraterrestrial race, they soon face a threat to humanity‘s very existence.

Fassbender is best known for his roles in the much talked about Shame and X Men First Class. Fox has confirmed the visit of Oscar nominated filmmaker Ang Lee to India in December 2012.

Fox Star Studios was the one to get Hugh Jackman to India earlier.

Prometheus releases in India on 8 June.
