Final Trailer for Predator: Badlands Debuts Ahead of Nov. 7 Theatrical Release

The preview spotlights Elle Fanning’s Weyland‑Yutani synths alongside a Predator protagonist on a perilous alien planet.

Overview

  • 20th Century Studios released the final trailer and new poster for Predator: Badlands on October 6, highlighting expansive creature action and fresh footage.
  • The film centers on Dek, a young Yautja outcast who allies with Thia, a Weyland‑Yutani synthetic, on what the trailer calls the most dangerous planet.
  • Elle Fanning plays Thia and also appears as Tessa, expanding the story’s synthetic presence and reinforcing ties to Alien’s corporate lore.
  • Producer Ben Rosenblatt says Xenomorphs do not appear, even as online chatter speculates about crossover setups; Weyland‑Yutani elements remain the confirmed link.
  • Rosenblatt indicates the team hopes for a PG‑13 rating due to non‑human blood, though the MPA rating is not final; the movie opens November 7 in IMAX, Dolby Cinema, RealD 3D, Cinemark XD, 4DX, and ScreenX under director Dan Trachtenberg.
