Is Arnold Back on the Predator Scene?

Hold onto your hunting gear, folks! Rumor has it that the one and only Arnold Schwarzenegger might make his glorious return to the Predator universe. According to none other than producer Ben Rosenblatt, director Dan Trachtenberg has had some chats with our beloved muscle man about reprising his iconic role as Dutch. Excited yet? You should be!

What’s Cooking in Badlands?

So, here’s the scoop: Arnie popped up in the animated series Predator: Killer of Killers recently, but if you were hoping for some live-action Arnie action — it’s been a while since he dazzled us back in ’87 with the original movie. But fear not, the team behind Predator: Badlands is all about making that happen!

The Holy Grail of Predators

As Rosenblatt put it, “The holy grail of Predator movies would be getting Arnold back in there.” Imagine the nostalgia! It’s been swimming around in their minds like a well-hidden trophy, and they can’t shake off the thought of having Arnie grace the franchise that made him a household name.

Fingers Crossed for Arnold!

In his own words, Rosenblatt sweetened the deal, saying, “He’s been really wonderful… he’s a real fan of what we’ve done so far.” You can practically hear the excitement bubbling through as he hinted at future discussions post Predator: Badlands release. Can you believe it? A chance to see Arnold back in action would be nothing short of legendary!

Flipping the Script

Now, let’s talk about the latest flick, Predator: Badlands. The plot takes a fresh twist — instead of humans being the brave hunters, we meet a young Predator outcast named Dek, teaming up with a synth named Thia. Who knew the Predators had outcasts too? That’s like a family reunion you never knew you wanted!

Crossover Craziness!

And guess what? There’s a bit of an Alien crossover going on here, courtesy of Thia being a gadget from the Weyland-Yutani corporation. But don’t freak out about a full-on Predator vs. Alien rumble! Trachtenberg has made it clear he’s not looking to throw all the action figures in a blender just for fun.

Get Ready for November!

The countdown is on, folks! Predator: Badlands is set to storm into our lives on November 7. Will this be the time we finally see Arnold back in action? Stay tuned, because one thing’s for sure — this ride is just getting started!
