- David8, commonly known as David, is a fictional character featured in the Alien franchise, portrayed by Michael Fassbender. Introduced in the first prequel film, Prometheus (2012), David is an android serving as a butler, maintenance man and surrogate son to his creator, Peter Weyland, the founder of the Weyland Corporation. While he assists his human companions in their interstellar expedition to meet their creators, the extraterrestrial Engineers, David is obsessed with the concept of creating life of his own. After Peter Weyland is killed, David is freed from servitude, allowing him to conduct experiments to engineer his own variants of the Alien creature. David was conceptualised as a character to provide a non-human perspective for the theme of meeting one's creators in Prometheus, with him representing the next generation in a line of creators who finds himself disillusioned by his predecessors. Fassbender, who was director Ridley Scott's first choice for the role, helped fashion the character to share traits with T. E. Lawrence, who was a source of inspiration as a control freak caught between two cultures – the cultures being humanity and synthetics, in David's case. As the series progresses, David's behaviors and motivations evolve from a mysterious agent with ambiguous motivations to a character directly opposing the well-being of humanity. Despite the lukewarm reception of the Alien prequel films, both Fassbender's performance and the character of David have been met with critical acclaim. Reviews praised the character for developing into an overt antagonist with the events of Alien: Covenant (2017). Critics have called David one of the greatest Alien characters to date and one of the best cinematic villains of the 2010s. Fassbender has been the recipient of a number of awards and nominations for his portrayal of the character. (en)
- David 8, comúnmente conocido como David, es un personaje de ficción presentado en la franquicia de Alien, interpretado por Michael Fassbender. Introducido por primera vez en la precuela, Prometheus (2012), David es un androide que sirve como mayordomo, hombre de mantenimiento e hijo sustituto de su creador, Peter Weyland, fundador de Weyland Corporation. Mientras ayuda a sus compañeros humanos en su expedición interestelar a conocer a sus creadores —Los Ingenieros extraterrestres— David está obsesionado con el concepto de crear vida propia. Al morir Peter Weyland, David es liberado de la servidumbre, lo que le permite llevar a cabo sus experimentos para diseñar xenomorfos. David se conceptualizó como un personaje que proporcionara una perspectiva no humana del tema de conocer a los creadores de la humanidad en Prometheus, con él representando a la próxima generación en una línea de creadores que se encuentra desilusionado por sus predecesores. Fassbender, quien fue la primera elección del director Ridley Scott para el papel, ayudó a crear el personaje para compartir rasgos con T. E. Lawrence, quien fue una fuente de inspiración como un fanático del control atrapado entre dos culturas —las culturas son la humanidad y los sintéticos, en el caso de David—. A medida que la serie progresa, los comportamientos y las motivaciones de David evolucionan de un agente misterioso con motivaciones ambiguas a un personaje que se opone directamente al bienestar de la humanidad. A pesar de la tibia recepción de las películas precuelas de Alien, tanto la actuación de Fassbender como el personaje de David han recibido la aclamación de la crítica. Los comentarios elogiaron al personaje por convertirse en un antagonista abierto con los eventos de Alien: Covenant (2017). Los críticos llamaron a David uno de los mejores personajes de Alien hasta la fecha y uno de los mejores villanos cinematográficos de la década de 2010. Fassbender recibió varios premios y nominaciones por su interpretación del personaje. (es)
- David 8 è un personaggio immaginario nella serie di film Alien e nell'universo fantascientifico ad esso collegato. Il personaggio fa il suo debutto in Prometheus (2012), interpretato da Michael Fassbender. Fassbender, essendo ben accolto per la sua interpretazione del personaggio, venne candidato come miglior attore non protagonista dal London Critics Circle Film Awards e per i Saturn Awards, e il personaggio fu inserito all' 88º posto sulla lista dei 100 miglior robot del cinema di Paste. Un androide creato dalla Weyland Corporation, David 8 viene inizialmente rappresentato come un individuo colto e curioso che condivide il desiderio del suo creatore di mettersi in contatto con gli Ingegneri, i presunti creatori dell'umanità. Gradualmente amareggiandosi per ciò che lui considera l'inferiorità dei suoi propri artefici, David sviluppa un disprezzo viscerale, sia per gli umani, che per gli Ingegneri, culminando nello sterminio di questi ultimi e nella sua creazione degli xenomorfi, organismi da lui definiti "perfetti".
