THE PREDATOR
A sequel to the Arnold Schwarzenegger sci-fi film Predator (1987) about a team of commandos in the Central American jungle fighting against a dangerous creature known as the Predator. It was originally going to be a reboot, but instead became a sequel when the director and co-writer Shane Black signed on and stated it would be a sequel that explores more of the Predator mythology.
One of the actors in the film ensemble, comedian Keegan-Michael Key , commented to Entertainment Weekly that: “Predator was a real privilege to do, and if people think they’re going to see a remake of the original movie, they’re in for a surprise…. A very pleasant surprise.”
Get ready to see them all become prey when The Predator hits theaters on February 9, 2018.
