So the Predator franchise had seemed to have fallen off a cliff in terms of quality but the release of ‘Prey’ changed all that. To huge critical and commercial acclaim the film, much like Alien Romulus, has rejuvenated the franchise. With sequels greenlit we now have the first look at the latest Predator Badlands trailer and it looks pretty impressive.
Set in the future on a deadly remote planet, “Badlands” follows a young Predator outcast (played by newcomer Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi) who finds an unlikely ally in Thia (Emmy and Golden Globe nominee Elle Fanning) as he embarks on a treacherous journey in search of the ultimate adversary.
As per the teaser trailer this new trailer confirms that here the predator is the protagonist in this new film and Fanning is definitely an android. Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi takes on the role of the Predator, who is named Dek, in the film which was shot in New Zealand at the end of 2024. Director Dan Trachtenberg returns promising that what we’ve seen in the teaser trailer is now expanded in ti full on monster madness and frankly we can’t wait! We interviewed Dan recently and what he’s got in store looks awesome!
Predator Badlands is released on 7th November.
