The sci-fi actioner starring Michael Fassbender, Charlize Theron, Noomi Rapace, Idris Elba and Logan Marshall-Green earns $737,588 from 30,000 ticket presales at the BFI Imax theater.

Scott's movie, starring a galaxy of stars including Michael Fassbender, Charlize Theron, Noomi Rapace, Idris Elba and Logan Marshall-Green, has earned £470,977 ($737,588) from the 30,000 tickets booked.

By the beginning of May, the BFI Imax said it had booked 18,287 tickets in its first full week of presales at the theater. At that time, ticket sales translated into £293,312 ($474,687), the highest-grossing week ever.
Now, one week out from the movie's rollout, presales continue to smash records posted by James Cameron's Avatar and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2.

The Fox-distributed movie marks Scott’s return to sci-fi, a genre he is credited with helping to define with Alien (1979) and Blade Runner (1982).

Prometheus details the story of a team of explorers who discover a clue to the origins of mankind on Earth, leading them on a journey to the darkest corners of the universe. There, they must fight a terrifying battle to save the future of the human race.

The movie opens in Imax with midnight screenings May 31.
