10 Supporting Characters Who Were Much Better Than The Main Characters
10. David - Prometheus (2012)

"Sometimes to create, one must first destroy." We all knew Michael Fassbender's performance in Prometheus as the android David would be something special. The androids in the Alien series tend to play a crucial part to the story though whether they are evil or not is anybody's guess until the moment of revelation either way. Since the viral video of an Apple-esque advertisement for David was released, and we saw his crisp appearance with perfect English accent, we knew Fassbender was going to give us a show, and we could all see something sinister beneath his looks. It was after this teaser that everyone began to get really excited about Prometheus. Unfortunately, Prometheus turned out to be a bit of a disappointment for most Alien fans. With practically all of the other characters being paper-thin with extremely poor judgement, David was the only character who COULD steal the show. The studios caught on to this and he is now in the middle of the DVD cover rather than Noomi Rapace. We were all glad to see that he (kind of) survived and will hopefully be in the next film - he was the best character after all.
