The Prometheus 2 release date has been confirmed and Michael Fassbender and Noomi Rapace has confirmed that they are back for the sequel.
Michael Fassbender revealed in an interview with Collider in which he promoted his latest 'X-men' film, that not only is Prometheus 2 happening, he is excited to be back as David and that he is excited to be working with Ridley Scott again:

Fans are wondering what will happen in the next story, with archeologist Elizabeth Shaw played by Noomi Rapace, and damaged, yet still functioning android David played by Michael Fassbender as they were last seen heading to the home world of humanity's architects turned future destroyers, the Engineers.
Breathecast reported that the Prometheus 2 release date was originally set for a 2015 release but was pushed back to 2016 after screenwriter Damon Lindelof left the project to work on Brad Bird's sci-fi project 'Tomorrowland as Ridley Scott worked on the crime thriller 'The Counselor' and the Moses epic 'Exodus', which is set to arrive in theaters at the end of this year.
But it should be noted that Ridley Scott is still onboard to direct Prometheus 2. Lindelof was replaced by Jake Paglen, whose works include the upcoming 'Transcendence'. According to the latest report from The Wrap, Paglen's script draft for the sequel is now being revised by Michael Green, who collaborated with Scott on a planned 'Blade Runner' prequel.
