PREDATOR: Killer of Killers – Everything You Need to Know
Dan Trachtenberg made waves in 2022 by reimagining the Predator franchise with the release of Prey. This prequel, hailed as a game changer, was a hit with critics and audiences alike, leading Disney and 20th Century Studios to entrust him with the future of the franchise. This includes the upcoming live-action film Predator: Badlands, featuring Elle Fanning, as well as another exciting project on the horizon.
This summer, fans can look forward to the release of Predator: Killer of Killers. What exactly is this? It’s a full-length animated movie that was teased by 20th Century Studios head Steve Asbell last October. While details were scarce at the time, a recent trailer and poster reveal shed more light on the project. Predator: Killer of Killers is a three-part anthology that follows fierce warriors from various time periods as they battle the deadliest hunters in the galaxy.
The movie will feature stories set in World War II, feudal Japan, and Viking times, showcasing unique encounters with the ultimate killer of killers. Interestingly, this animated film will be exclusively available for streaming on Hulu, following the success of Prey. Co-directed by Dan Trachtenberg and Josh Wassung of The Third Floor animation company, Predator: Killer of Killers has a talented team behind it, including writer Micho Robert Rutare.
Trachtenberg, who was also working on Predator: Badlands, shared that each segment of the movie explores generational themes and different genres. Despite the interconnected stories, the film promises to provide a satisfying standalone experience for viewers. While this project wraps up the current storyline, there may be more tales to tell in the Predator universe in the future.
For fans eagerly anticipating Predator: Killer of Killers, mark your calendars for June 6 when the movie will be available to stream on Hulu. With two new Predator films on the horizon this year, Trachtenberg aims to deliver a thrilling and complete cinematic experience that will leave audiences satisfied.
