Fans ofthePredatorfranchiseare already having a fantastic week but its about to get much, much better.
And, they may eventually take onAlienonce again too.
And were like, What do you want to do?
The director of Prey is working on two new Predator projects for next year.Image: Fox
20th Century Studios president Steve Asbel toldthe Hollywood Reporter.
And he rattled off a bunch of ideas that were really crazy but really cool.
Weve actually done two of them.
Two are coming out next year.
Thatll be out theatrically sometime next year.
When pressed about what this second movie is, Asbel wouldnt budge.
Theres a secondPredatormovie that we have different plans for.
Dan has actually directed both, Asbel said.
What he can say a bit more about isBadlands.
Badlands…is an absolutely bonkers idea, Asbel said.
It is a sci-fi thing, but its not what everybody thinks it is.
And I mean, its awesome.
It is so nuts.
But in Dan, we trust.
So, what the heck is he talking about?
io9 reached out to the director who, understandably, would not comment.
He did, however, offerthis winky face emoji teaseon social media so feel free to speculate wildly below.
It wouldnt be in the way you think.
Thats the thing, Asbel said aboutAvP.
Not in the way that it will just be calledAlien vs. Predatoror anything like the original movies.
But we havent gotten to that point.
And were not just going to bang it out.
It sounds like fans of not justPredatorbutAlientoo will be eating well over the next few years.
