Description

On this episode of Behind The Geeks, we sit down with director Dan Trachtenberg to talk about Predator: Badlands — the bold new chapter in the iconic sci-fi franchise. Dan shares what drew him back to the Predator universe after Prey, and opens up about the creative risks involved in humanizing the Yautja in a way we’ve never seen before. From the franchise's primal roots to its emotional evolution, we explore how Badlands redefines what a Predator movie can be. 

Predator: Badlands opens exclusively in movie theatres on November 7 in IMAX, RealD (3D), 4DX, ScreenX and premium screens everywhere
