Yes, the Predator franchise is getting a reboot or redo of update called Predators. Yes, everything is getting a reboot these days.
Why? It’s all about the marketing. They know the franchises that were popular with middle agers or pre-middle agers will get their attention and since it nailed their attention span back then, it may get the younger generations attention span again, too. They’re nailing two demographics in one shot. Basic marketing 101.
But enough about that noise.
First off Robert Rodriguez is producing this rehash of one of my all time favorite movie characters. That’s fine. I’ve never hated anything he’s done.
Then the news was that the writer snagged for the project was Alex Litvak. Rodriguez is having him work over a spec script he (Rodriguez) wrote 15 years ago on the premise of Predator.
Later on I picked up on the noise that a 2nd screenplay writer came on board, a Michael Finch.
