The hunt will be on at San Diego Comic-Con, where Predator: Badlands will get the spotlight.
Per the Hollywood Reporter, the sci-fi film will get a Hall H panel during the convention weekend. It’ll be the second big Disney movie of the fall season to make an appearance at the famed Hall, joining October’s Tron: Ares. Both films will fill in for a lack of Marvel at this year’s convention, and it’ll be the Predator franchise’s first theatrical movie to hit SDCC since Shane Black’s 2018 reboot. (Prey, which premiered at SDCC 2022, sadly never got a theatrical release.)
Like with Tron, Predator: Badlands hasn’t had much marketing since its initial trailer and poster. The Hall H panel will hopefully feature a new trailer for the film, which centers on Dak (Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi), a young Yautja outcast teaming with the android Thia (Elle Fanning) to get back in his clan’s good graces by hunting a worthy enemy. Prey director Dan Trachtenberg is back behind the camera for this one, and unlike Prey and this year’s Killers of Killers, you’ll be able to see Badlands on the big screen.
San Diego Comic-Con runs from July 24-27, and Predator: Badlands hits theaters on November 7. While we wait for more info about it, might as well rewatch Prey or Killer of Killers over on Hulu.
