The hunt is on again. This time not on Earth…. Predators will be released on July 7th 2010. And expect it to be bloodier and more darker then the other according to Sci fi wire and Latino Review
The draft is a “bloody, violent, Hard-R script” that pits a team of seven kidnapped humans against Predators on the aliens’ home planet. Reportedly, the team of seven are:
- Royce, a Steve McQueen type
- Cuchillo, a Mexican enforcer for a drug cartel who has twin uzis strapped to his back
- Nikolai, a bear of a Russian armed with a four-barrel gas-powered rotary machine gun
- Isabelle, a French woman armed with a sniper rifle
- Stans, a San Quentin prisoner with a shaved head, armed with a prison-made knife
- Mombasa, an African member of the Sierra Leone death squad
- Hanzo, a Yakuza enforcer
- Edwin, an unassuming man who was formerly on the FBI’s most-wanted list.
Robert Rodriguez will produce this reboot of the franchise. Personally I do not see it as a reboot (a phrase if have not read in past post I seem to detest) especially that the Alien vs Preditor series did so well in the theaters and DVD . Anyway they started to film the latest ctreation on Sept 28th and it will be directed by Nimród Antal. Casting has been kept secret so far. But it looks like there will be more to come of this as the PR department starts getting all exited about the release. And I will follow up with it as it does.
