Predator: Badlands has become the number one film premiere on Hulu since 2022’s Prey — the streamer’s most-watched movie debut of all time.
The latest installment in the Predator saga started streaming last week, amassing nearly 9 million global views in its first five days on Hulu and Disney+, Deadline reports.
All nine films in the Predator franchise are now on Hulu, along with 15 new videos in the Predator Creators Collection, amassing over 300 million hours streamed.
Predator: Badlands hit theaters in November and went on to become the franchise’s highest-grossing entry with $184.5 million worldwide.
Dan Trachtenberg (Prey, 10 Cloverfield Lane) directs from a script written by Patrick Aison (Prey) and Brian Duffield (Love and Monsters).
Set in the future on a remote planet, a young Predator (Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi), outcast from his clan, finds an unlikely ally in Thia (Elle Fanning) and embarks on a treacherous journey in search of the ultimate adversary.
Meagan Navarro wrote in her review, “Trachtenberg and his talented team craft a stunning adventure epic with winsome characters, action, and creatures, but one that’s so drastically different that it’s polarizing.”
