What was his deal? They build up his character like he'll be a surprise villain, or at the very least he's hiding something big, but then he dies heroically. What was up with him not knowing how old his daughter was, with the mysterious music, and something with a picture of her that Kristen Stewart finds in the abandoned station or whatever?

But ya - he seemed out of place.
Could it be the mining company were looking for the creature, a bit like weyland was in “alien”?
Also in the scene looking inside the captain’s locker you can see what looke like a pentagram on the right and a creature at the bottom that looks like ctuhlu:
