There will be a sequel to "Alien vs. Predator"? The director said it is not finished yet

The Hollywood sci-fi action-adventure film "Predator" (tentative translation) has attracted much attention from fans since its preparation. The new launch of a classic IP always triggers two kinds of discussions. On the one hand, whether it can inherit the previous work and make new breakthroughs, and on the other hand, whether it can be linked with similar IPs. Director Shane Black (director of "Iron Man 3") and the main creative team were interviewed recently and answered these two questions.

The director has new considerations and interpretations for the plot of Predator. On the planet where Predator lives, there is a faction of the strongest hunters in the universe who have been defeated by humans many times. These failed experiences have aroused their fighting spirit and they want to find opportunities to fight back. Under this assumption, the director hopes to create a different feeling for Predator in the new film. Instead of changing the original image of Predator, the director focuses on studying the behavior of Predator and focusing on showing the dangerous, deadly and cruel side of the strongest hunter in the universe.

In the trailer for the rebooted version of Predator, we can see that many scenes follow this idea. There are not only scenes of people fighting with ordinary Predators, but also an upgraded version of Predators, who upgrade their DNA through hunting, directly triggering the survival of the fittest among Predator clans. Facing the powerful upgraded Predators, humans must be more cautious.

Regarding the classic film and television IP of Predator, in addition to the three main works (Predator 1, Predator 2), there are also two classic spin-offs, Alien vs. Predator 1 and Alien vs. Predator 2. The AVP (Alien vs. Predator) series not only satisfies fans' fantasy of the powerful combination of two classic science fiction IPs, but the overlap of two time and space also adds mystery and authenticity to the existence of these alien life forms.

A fan asked if there was any idea to combine the Predator and the Alien again. Blake said that we are now focusing on the Predator, but he also said, "I don't think the AVP (Alien vs. Predator) series is over." This also triggered many fans' speculation about the new work.

In addition to Shane Black, who directed Iron Man 3, the cast of Predator is also top-notch. The male lead is played by Boyd Holbrook, who was a model and played the villain in Wolverine 3, and the female lead is played by Olivia Munn, who played Psylocke in X-Men: Apocalypse.

In addition, Jacob Tremblay, a child star who has starred in "Room" and "Wonder", and Sterling K. Brown (representative works "This Is Us" and "Black Panther"), Yvonne Strahovski (representative works "Chuck"), Keegan-Michael Key (representative works "Black Brothers"), Trevante Rhodes (representative works "Moonlight"), Thomas Jane (representative works "The Mist"), Alfie Allen (representative works "Game of Thrones") and many other powerful actors co-starred. The film will be released in North America on September 14 this year.
