In exactly three weeks, the November 7will be released in Spanish cinemas’Predator: Badlands’one of the most anticipated science fiction films of the year.
The film marks the return of one of the most emblematic franchises of the genrewhich has been active for 38 years since the premiere of the classic ‘Predator’ (1987), starring Arnold Schwarzenegger.
An unexpected alliance
Directed by Dan Trachtenberg‘Predator: Badlands’ stars Elle Fanning y Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi. Fanning interpreta a Thiaa synthetic – the human-shaped robots of the saga – that joins forces with Tenand young yautjathe species of fearsome alien hunters, played by Koloamatangi.
Together they undertake a suicide mission in search of the ultimate adversary, in a story that promises to balance action, emotion and reflection on the nature of hunting.
Dan Trachtenberg, the savior of the saga
The name of Then Trachtenberg has become synonymous with Resurrection inside the Predator universe. The filmmaker managed to revitalize the franchise with ‘Predator: In the press’ (2022), a film set in the 18th century that followed Naru (Amber Midthunder), una joven comanche who was facing a Yautja alone. Its more contained and suspense-focused approach returned to the saga the prestige lost after the setback of ‘Predator’ (2018), directed by Shane Black.
Expansion of the ‘Predator’ universe
In addition to Badlands, Trachtenberg has also participated in ‘Predator: Killer of killers’ (2025), an animated production co-directed with Josh Wassung and released directly in Disney+. He films adopt a anthology format and presents three independent stories:
- A viking warrior who seeks revenge after a Yautja attack.
- And ninja in feudal japan who faces the most dangerous hunt of his life.
- And World War II pilot who encounters a predator in the middle of an aerial battle.
These stories confirm the will of expand the mythology of the Predator universe beyond the present and traditional action cinema.
A legacy of 38 years
The ‘Predator’ franchise began in 1987 with the John McTiernan-directed film, which was followed by ‘Predator 2′ (1990), ‘Predators’ (2010) y ‘Predator’ (2018). There were also two ‘crossovers‘with the saga ‘Alien: Alien vs. Predator’ (2004) y ‘Alien vs. Predator 2: Requiem’ (2007).
Despite the ups and downs, ‘Predator’ has managed to remain one of the most influential science fiction and action sagas of modern cinemaand Badlands seeks to continue that legacy with a fresh and contemporary look.
