Director
Dan
Trachtenberg
has
cemented
his
status
as
the
definitive
creative
steward
of
the
Predator
franchise.
His
latest
installment,
Predator:
Badlands,
made
a
strong
debut
with
a
commanding
90%
critic
score
on
Rotten
Tomatoes,
earning
widespread
critical
acclaim
for
its
heart-pounding
action
and
fresh
take
on
the
iconic
sci-fi
spectacle.
Predator:
Badlands
continues
the
series’ critical
resurgence
following
the
successes
of
Trachtenberg’s
Prey
and
Predator:
Killer
of
Killers.
The
film
is
praised
for
successfully
balancing
the
franchise’s
signature
gore
and
suspense
with
innovative
concepts,
including
a
reported
franchise-first
plot
point:
featuring
the

as
the
main
protagonist.

film
stars
Elle
Fanning
and
Dimitrius
Schuster-Koloamatangi,
alongside
an
accomplished
ensemble
cast.
Commenting
on
the
film’s
unique
appeal
and
connection
to
the
fanbase,
star
Dimitrius
Schuster-Koloamatangi
said:
“I
hope
that
fans
of
the
Predator
franchise
get
satisfaction
out
of
watching
a
film
that
they’ve
been
waiting
for
a
long
time.
I
think
this
is
something
people
have
been
dying
to
see
for
a
long
time,
and
because
this
film
literally
exists
because
of
the
fans,
I
hope
they’ll
enjoy
it.
And
I
hope
that
it’s
able
to
introduce
a
new
generation
of
fans
to
the
franchise
and
make
more
people
root
for
this
iconic
character.”
