Director Dan Trachtenberg brought life back to Predator franchise with his film Preyand is now developing two more Predator film, one of which is titled Predator: Badlands.
We have some really exciting details to share for the new film, which will give fans something very different than the Predator. In this story, the predator will be the hero of the story.
Trachtenberg revealed this information in a recent interview with Empire. He said: “The creature is front and centre, leading the charge. It’s still tough, but there’s something there that touches you emotionally too. Creating a character that you connect with, but are also very intimidated by, was challenging. But exciting.”
He explained that the idea was born from a desire to “find another essential piece of cinema that does what Prey did spiritually – pushing the boundaries of the franchise, allowing us to root for a hero we rarely get to root for – but in a different way. And that turned into this great idea of rooting for the Predator.
I love this! It’s a really cool idea to tell a story where the terrifying and deadly alien hunter Predator is actually the hero! It’s going to be really damn fun!
Elle Fanning she also stars in the film and plays multiple characters, and speaking about her role in the story, the director said, “She faced intense challenges in this film – dramatically, physically, logistically.”
The film’s plot reads: “A groundbreaking film in which one of two main plots delves into the intricate bond of two very different sisters, whose family bonds are put to the ultimate test as they pursue divergent paths and missions.”
What do you think about the Predator being turned into a hero to root for? Badlands?
