Fans of the Predator franchise have reason to celebrate as exciting news continues to roll in. Following Disney’s announcement of the upcoming film Predator: Badlands, a Fox executive revealed that a second film is also in the works for next year. 20th Century Studios president Steve Asbel shared insights about the creative direction for these films, highlighting the involvement of director Dan Trachtenberg, who initially declined to pursue a sequel to Prey.
Instead, he proposed several innovative ideas, two of which are set for release in 2025. One of these is confirmed to be the live-action Predator film starring Elle Fanning, which recently wrapped production in New Zealand.
While details about the second film remain under wraps, Asbel hinted at its unique concept. He emphasized that *Badlands* promises to be a wild sci-fi adventure, diverging from typical expectations, and expressed confidence in Trachtenberg’s vision. Additionally, there are discussions around a sequel to Alien: Romulus and the potential for a future Alien vs. Predator movie, though Asbel assured that any crossover would be organically developed rather than following the traditional format of previous installments. With these developments, fans of both franchises can look forward to a thrilling few years ahead.
