The first trailer for Predator: Badlands has been released, offering a fresh and novel approach to the iconic franchise. This preview, which is now available to the public, features actress Elle Fanning in a setting that appears to be a planet inhabited by the feared Predators, the protagonists of this new story. Unlike previous installments, which focused on human heroes trying to defeat the aliens, this film presents a narrative in which a young Predator, played by Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatang, teams up with a human named Thia, in search of a formidable adversary.
Predator may have finally found a way to return
Directed by Dan Trachtenberg and based on a script by Patrick Aison, Badlands represents the sixth installment of the saga and acts as an independent chapter, not linked to the recent partnership that Prey established on Hulu. Trachtenberg, known for his work on Prey, which set new viewing records on the platform, brings his distinctive vision to this new story, which promises to be different from what fans have seen so far.
The unexpected collaboration between a young Predator and Thia could signal a shift in the traditional narrative of the franchise, allowing for a deeper exploration of its characters. Rumors suggest that Predator: Badlands could be just the beginning of a new direction for the series, especially with a supposed development of Prey 2, which could see the return of Amber Midthunder.
The movie is scheduled for a theatrical release on November 7, marking a return to the big screen after the streaming experience of its predecessor. With the rise of curiosity about this new approach, fans of the franchise are eager to see what Badlands will have to offer.
