"It's Very Bonkers": Prey Director Shares Candid Thoughts On 2018's The Predator
Prey director Dan Trachtenberg recalls his first reaction to reading Shane Black's The Predator script, feeling it went for a "kitchen sink" approach.
The Predator (2018)
The Predator is a sci-fi action film by director Shane Black. From the outer reaches of space to the small-town streets of suburbia, the hunt comes home in Black's explosive reinvention of the Predator series. Now, the universe's most lethal hunters are stronger, smarter, and deadlier than ever before, having genetically upgraded themselves with DNA from other species. When a young boy accidentally triggers their return to Earth, only a ragtag crew of ex-soldiers and a disgruntled science teacher can prevent the end of the human race.
