20th Century Studios' Predator: Badlands is projected to launch with $60 million worldwide, including over $25 million from the U.S. and Canada, as it aims to revive a struggling fall box office. Directed by Dan Trachtenberg, the PG-13 film flips the franchise formula by making the alien hunter the prey, earning strong early reviews at 88% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes. It arrives in theaters amid comparisons to recent sci-fi releases like Tron: Ares.
Director Dan Trachtenberg has entered a three-year first-look directing and producing deal with Paramount Pictures. The agreement allows him to develop, direct, and produce feature projects alongside partner Ben Rosenblatt. This marks a reunion with the studio following his 2016 hit 10 Cloverfield Lane.
