Amber Midthunder was the shining star in the Predator prequel Prey. Now, it is Elle Fanning’s turn to face the classic creature.
According to Deadline, Fanning is set to star in the futuristic set Badlands. The new project is set to be directed by Dan Trachtenberg, the filmmaker who overhauled the franchise with the 20th Century and Hulu feature Prey.
The premise for Badlands is unknown, but the story is expected to take place sometime in the future. At this time it is also unknown if the film will go to Hulu like Prey. Additionally, the studio is still working on a sequel to Prey with hopes of Midthunder returning.
Prey was very well-received by critics, with praise for its action sequences, Midthunder’s performance, cinematography, Trachtenberg’s direction, and the Indigenous casting, with many critics calling it the best Predator installment since the first film.
