Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi in Predator: Badlands (2025)
A young Predator outcast from his clan finds an unlikely ally on his journey in search of the ultimate adversary.

This is the final trailer for director Dan Trachtenberg's follow-up to his previous 'Predator' franchise films, 2022's 'Prey' (starring Amber Midthunder) and 2025's Hulu anime anthology 'Predator: Killer of Killers.'

'Predator: Badlands' stars Elle Fanning as the Weyland-Yutani "synth" who helps a young outcast predator (Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi) navigate the "most dangerous planet in the universe." 

Fanning recently starred opposite Timothée Chalamet in the Bob Dylan biopic 'A Complete Unknown.' Aside from his work on the 'Predator' series, Trachtenberg is best known for directing 2016's '10 Cloverfield Lane.'

'Predator: Badlands' premieres theatrically in the United States on November 7, 2025.

    Summary

    Reviewers say 'Predator: Badlands' offers a unique take on the Predator universe, with strong action, impressive visuals, and a fresh perspective with its focus on the Predator as its protagonist. However, some feel the film deviates from the original's menacing nature, with humanization and humor seen as detracting from the franchise's core appeal. Complaints about its reliance on CGI and formulaic storytelling are noted, though many reviewers still value its entertaining qualities and lore expansion.

    Watch it with a new mind set

    Great sifi movie. With a lot of humor and a new view of the Predator universe. The Genna planet is amazing, with death chalenges everywhere. I really enjoy this movie with my family anda i will see it again.

    The people talk about the fans... What fans they are talking about? I´m a fan of predator and enjoy this new aproach as well. Go to cinema and enjoy a fantastic sifi adventure.

    Predator

    Let's be honest this is just a mix of Jurassic park, Avatar, Starwars all wrapped into one. With a predator falling in love with new pronoun. Hollywood really you need to wake up and go back to the 80s and 90s. We're just getting directors because they come from a certain place and not looking at true cinema.

    Give Hollywood long enough, it'll ruin everything...

    So after the Disneyfication of Star Wars and Alien, we finally get around to the abject ruination of the beloved Predator series. True, Shane Black came mighty close with The Predator back in 2018 and best not mention Alien v. Predator: Requiem at all but, in the excellent wake of Prey and Predator: Killer of Killers, hopes were extremely high for whatever Dan Trachtenberg would come up with next.

    And then this. Predator meets the Mickey Mouse club or Predator and Stitch. Whatever, you get the picture. What we have been dished up here is the very furthest thing we could possibly have been given from the Predator we know and love.

    I won't go into the depressing details of what we actually have to endure for the sake of the poor suckers who are going to spend their hard earned sheckles seeing this mess but I just need to say that Elle Fanning and Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi give it their best... and that's about it. Too much CGI, not enough horror and absolutely no tension.

    This is gonna take a lot of coming back from....

    May as well have been a generic disney adventure film

    Whose idea was it to turn Predator into a beat-for-beat Disney-style adventure film? This is Predator in name only. There is virtually none of the horror, tension, or atmosphere from the original. It feels like a cardboard cutout, generic kids movie. It may as well have been a Disney Channel original.

    I could not believe they included every stereotype: the quirky, annoying sidekick who asks endless questions while traveling, the cutesy creature the audience is supposed to adore, the forced found-family dynamic, and the overtly evil villains with shallow motivations. It's seriously reminded me of like this straight to dvd kids movies my parents bought for me when I was a kid. Unbelievable.

    Smells like Disney

    Hey. Visually all there. But remember when Star Wars started throwing in gags? I mean here we go again. More pandering and less epic. And for what? Contrived relationships and nerfed villains. And yes we get it: "copy right copy right trademarked" did anyone else catch that? C'mon guys, I just want to watch a movie.

      Thia: Sister. I guess she is. I have a sister. What a lovely thought. I need to find her.

      Dek: And legs.

      Thia: Excuse me?

      Dek: Find your sister. And legs.

      Thia: Was that a joke?
