Must Watch Teaser for Dan Trachtenberg's 'Predator: Badlands' Movie 1

In a distant, desolate planet, a young Predator, shunned by his own clan, forges an unlikely alliance with Thia (Elle Fanning) on a perilous quest to confront the ultimate foil. Co-starring Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi as the youthful Predator, this film promises an exhilarating fusion of sci-fi and action. The prospect of seeing the Predator as the protagonist in this next chapter is exhilarating, and Fanning's portrayal of an android (perhaps from the illustrious Weyland-Yutani Corporation?!) adds an intriguing twist to the narrative. Furthermore, Predator: Badlands intertwines with this year's Predator: Killer of Killers, creating a broader cinematic universe.

Set in a future where the stars are but stepping stones, Predator: Badlands follows our outcast Predator, portrayed by Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi, as he teams up with Thia (Elle Fanning) for a treacherous voyage in search of an unyielding adversary. Under the adept direction of Dan Trachtenberg, renowned for his work on 10 Cloverfield Lane, Prey, episodes of "Black Mirror," "The Boys," and numerous other projects, this film promises a visual and narrative feast. The screenplay, penned by Dan Trachtenberg and Patrick Aison, builds upon characters originally conceived by Jim Thomas and John Thomas. Produced by an esteemed team including John Davis, Dan Trachtenberg, Marc Toberoff, Ben Rosenblatt, and Brent O’Connor, Predator: Badlands is poised to captivate audiences nationwide.
