A hidden piece of news out of this past weekend’s Toy Fair in New York is that NECA has acquired the rights to 20th Century Fox’s The Predator, the Shane-Black-directed sequel to the sci-fi horror classic he co-wrote and co-starred in. The only news is that there will be a 7″ “Ultimate” figure, although there’s no word on any other variations or characters being turned into plastic. We expect more news at the San Diego Comic-Con this coming July as it sets the stage for the new September release date.
In The Predator, a group of unsuspecting humans slowly realize that fierce hunter-aliens are in their midst, this time in a suburban setting.
Olivia Munn, Boyd Holbrook, Trevante Rhodes, Thomas Jane, Augusto Aguilera, Edward James Olmos, Alfie Allen and Yvonne Strahovski star.
Jake Busey is playing the son of Gary Busey’s Predator 2 character.
