Dan Trachtenberg (Prey, 10 Cloverfield Lane, The Boys) has found his IP, his franchise and he legacy and the filmmaker is making the argument to helm or be involved creatively in every future Predator project with the newest look at his animated anthology film Predator: Killer of Killers. Trachtenberg has numerous projects headlining the iconic, intergalactic hunters including the highly anticipated Predator: Badlands. Today, hardcore fans get another blood soaked look at the carnage that awaits as 20th Century Studios has unleashed the latest trailer and retro looking key art for Predator: Killer of Killers, which is an ambitious and original animated anthology movie in its own right and is set in the Predator universe.
Scroll below for your official and exclusive second look at Predator: Killer of Killers which hails from 20th Century Studios and Hulu!
OFFICIAL SYNOPSIS: “The anthology story follows three of the fiercest warriors in human history: a Viking raider guiding her young son on a bloody quest for revenge, a ninja in feudal Japan who turns against his Samurai brother in a brutal battle for succession, and a WWII pilot who takes to the sky to investigate an otherworldly threat to the Allied cause. But while all these warriors are killers in their own right, they are merely prey for their new opponent – the ultimate killer of killers.”
Predator: Killer of Killers is, of course, directed by Dan Trachtenberg along with Josh Wassung, who is part of the animation company The Third Floor. The film stars the voice talents of Lindsay LaVanchy, Louis Ozawa, Rick Gonzalez, and genre icon Michael Biehn who knows a thing or two about the Alien/Predator shared universe. The film was penned by Micho Robert Rutare based off a story by Trachtenberg and Rutare, which are based on characters created by Jim Thomas & John Thomas in the original movie starring Arnie. The producers include John Davis,Trachtenberg, Marc Toberoff, and Ben Rosenblatt, with Lawrence Gordon, James E. Thomas, John C. Thomas, and Stefan Grube as executive producers.
This newest trailer for Predator: Killer of Killers highlights the Predators along with the unfortunate human warriors who must defend themselves against them throughout the centuries. Nonstop ultra-violence, gore and unabashed mayhem are in order here and this animated offering just might be the best Predator movie since the first two, even Prey.
The animation is beautiful in its own right and radiates a dynamic and visceral violent tone that will remind die hards like myself of the old school Mortal Kombat video games that flooded the arcades back in the 80’s and 90’s. There are three separate stories drop that assault the viewer and each story serves up a different warzone where survival is a fleeting thought.
Let me just say that I am equally excited for Predator: Badlands and have no problem with the way the new and younger hunter looks in it. This is just another iteration of the iconic monster and fans should revel in the fact that we are getting more of these films after the last few flopped hard. Like Killer of Killers, Badlands looks to give fans something different while at the same time paying respect and homage to the franchise and these beloved warriors.
Predator: Killer of Killers hits HULU & Disney+ on June 6, 2025!
