Badlands wants to be a relational story

As the current intendant of Predator Franchise, the director Dan Trachtenberg seems very aware not to repeat himself. While fans still keep hope to Prey 2There can be no complaint regarding the shortage of new documents in the Predator universe. We have already had the animated anthology film Predator: Killer killer Earlier this year, and there will be a whole new flavor of science fiction survival to come in November Predator: Badlands.

In a new interview with Empire, Trachtenberg has teased how much Badlands go be it. We already knew that the Predator himself will be the hero of this story, with help from an Android character made by another familiar science fiction pillar (StrangerThe sinister Megacorp Weyland-Yutani) played by her Fanning. But the nature of their matching sounds … surprising, to say the least.

“In general, I am always looking for: what could only happen in This Film? “Trachtenberg explained to the Empire.

He calls the final result “a kind of friend’s comedy”, thanks to the dek duo (the predator – yes, he has a name!) And Thia (the synthetic character of Fanning). “”Prey was a solo survival tale; It is a relationship story.

It is also, of course, a “crazy adventure against monsters and elements – only this time, it is a hard predator to cook against these things. We wanted Dek to be relatable, but without transforming it into Luke Skywalker. He is always a predator – we had to allow him to be a cock. But a cock for which you can root. “

We can’t wait to see how everything meets when Predator: Badlands arrives on November 7.
