Arnold Schwarzenegger Could Battle ‘The Predator’ Once Again!
Arnold Schwarzenegger is unique to the Predator franchise because he never appeared in any of the films outside of John McTiernan’s 1987 horror/sci-fi classic.
He nearly did make an appearance in the 2010 Predators as the writers and director Nimród Antal envisioned Schwarzenegger for a cameo, which ultimately ended up featuring Laurence Fishburne in the role of ‘Noland.’
These days Schwarzenegger is back acting at a furious pace, so the idea that he could appear in Shane Black’s upcoming The Predator doesn’t seem all that far fetched, especially if Black has a part for him.
Thankfully, there’s a meeting planned, which could result in the return of Dutch!
“I haven’t talked with him (Shane Black) yet but I’m going to meet with him for lunch sometime soon,” Schwarzenegger told The Arnold Fans. “Just as soon as I’m finished with this (Arnold’s Sports Festival) and “The Apprentice” and all this stuff. But I will get together with him. If there is any news, we’ll of course let you know right away. There’s also a meeting coming up soon about Conan, about the project moving forward.”
We should clarify that this doesn’t really mean anything. For all we know Schwarzenegger could be having coffee with Black because they’re old pals – being that Black cleaned up the original Predator script and starred – and Schwarzenegger wants to ask for a role. Who knows? And if Schwarzenegger is going to make an appearance, will Black pull a Paul Feig and have him in a new role like the original Ghostbusters? Preferably, I’d love to see Dutch central to this new Predator story, which I’m being told behind the scenes is an authentic sequel to the 1987 film. Let’s see how this develops…
Fox recently set The Predator for release on March 2nd, 2018. Yeah, baby!
The new trailer for epic survival thriller The Dog Stars warns to fear the survivors of the apocalypse.
Jacob Elordi (Frankenstein), Josh Brolin (Weapons), and Margaret Qualley (The Substance) try to maintain their humanity in the intense new trailer for Ridley Scott‘s survival thriller, releasing in theaters on August 28, 2026.
The film is “set in a world where survival is instinct, but humanity is a choice.
“Ridley Scott tells the story of Hig, a young pilot who, together with a military survivalist, Bangley, has carved out an efficient but isolated homestead in a brutal post-apocalyptic world until a mysterious radio transmission spurs Hig to venture into the unknown in search of the hope and humanity he still believes exists.”
Guy Pearce, Benedict Wong, and Allison Janney also star.
The film is based on Peter Heller’s bestselling novel and written by Mark L. Smith (Overlord, The Revenant) and produced by Ridley Scott, Michael Pruss, Mark L. Smith, and Cliff Roberts.
Check out the new trailer and poster below, which emphasize the thrills in the upcoming survival thriller. But it’s one that’s also filled with hope.
“I think people will be surprised and engaged, actually. I would say, hmm… charmed as well,” Scott says of the film. “Although, there is some violence.”
