The monster is back for more: the teaser trailer for the upcoming sci-fi action sequel Predator: Badlands has just been released online, generating buzz among fans.
In the teaser, we are introduced to Elle Fanning's character, who seems to inhabit a perilous future on a remote planet. What sets this installment apart is the unique twist on the classic Predator narrative. The teaser suggests that the Predator she encounters is different from previous iterations and might even serve as the protagonist. The tagline, "The director of Prey welcomes you to a world of pain," promises an intense experience.
Alongside the new Predator, there are evident references to the *Alien* universe, fueling speculation that *Badlands* might be setting the stage for a new *Aliens vs Predator* film. Notably, Fanning's character displays the Weyland Yutani reboot effect in her eyes, reminiscent of the synthetics in *Alien: Romulus*, hinting she could be an android. Additionally, a glimpse of the Weyland Yutani logo—the infamous corporation from the *Alien* franchise—appears on a damaged vehicle.
That's the Weyland Yutani logo on Elle Fanning's eyes. Is she a synth?Predator: Badlands was first announced in February 2024, with its release date confirmed in October of the same year. The trailer made its exclusive debut at CinemaCon earlier this month, and now fans can finally get a peek at what's in store.
20th Century Studios provided an official synopsis at CinemaCon: “In the future on a remote planet, a young Predator, outcast from his clan, finds an unlikely ally in Thia and embarks on a treacherous journey in search of the ultimate adversary.”
Elle Fanning shared some exciting details at CinemaCon, stating, "Something unprecedented happens in this movie. My character is not the one being chased. My character actually teams up with the Predator. And you get to see him in a completely new light. And... I'll stop there!"
Directed by Dan Trachtenberg, known for 10 Cloverfield Lane and the Predator prequel Prey, Predator: Badlands was co-written by Trachtenberg and Patrick Aison. The film is slated to hit theaters on November 7, 2025.
