The Predator is the hero of Predator: Badlands, the next Predator movie from Dan Trachtenberg
As a lifelong movie enthusiast who has seen more Predator films than I care to admit, this latest development in the franchise is nothing short of mind-blowing! The idea of the Predator being the protagonist is not only innovative but also adds an intriguing layer of complexity that I can’t wait to unpack.
Excuse me for a moment as I gather myself. We’ve just received a massive update about “Predator: Badlands,” the new addition to the Predator series directed by Dan Trachtenberg, who also helmed “Prey.” Our coverage on this Elle Fanning-led film has been ongoing, but even we didn’t see what Dan shared today in an exclusive conversation with Empire. It’s quite a surprise!
It turns out, Elle Fanning isn’t the hero of the next Predator movie at all. The Predator is.
According to Trachtenberg, “the main character is the focal point and taking the initiative,” he clarified. “He’s still tough as nails, yet there’s an emotional depth that resonates with you as well. Developing a character that you can relate to, but also feel intimidated by, has been quite a task. However, it’s been thrilling.
Trachtenberg shared that the concept for the Predator to headline the upcoming film originated from a wish to discover another significant cinematic experience similar to what Prey achieved spiritually – expanding the franchise’s horizons, offering an opportunity to cheer for a hero seldom seen as relatable. This idea eventually evolved into the grand notion of supporting the Predator character.
In previous instances, the Predator has shown signs of being more compassionate, yet this upcoming portrayal may surpass them all. The original “Alien vs Predator” film also featured a heroic Predator towards the end, but due to its less than stellar performance, we tend to overlook that version.
Confirmed: Elle Fanning plays “multiple” characters in Predator: Badlands
As a movie enthusiast, I’m thrilled to share some exciting details about the upcoming sci-fi flick, “Predator: Badlands”. Director Trachtenberg has confirmed that unlike its predecessors, this film is set on an alien planet instead of Earth.
Given that those rumblings suggested distinct roles and perspectives for the Fannings, I’m now pondering if one might be inclined to aid the Predator, while another seeks to chase it down. “She encountered significant hurdles in this film — in terms of drama, physical demands, and logistics,” Trachtenberg hinted.
The movie titled “Predator: Badlands” is set to hit theaters on November 7, 2025. However, fans of Predator films have something extra to look forward to in the next year as well! Trachtenberg has secretly filmed another Predator movie, which is expected to release before “Predator: Badlands”. It’s shaping up to be an exceptional year for Predator enthusiasts.
