Dan Trachtenberg is all set to helm another Predator movieBadlandsas it was revealed to have been in development.Prey’ssuccess has brought back the franchise from the near end reviving the vital essence of the extraterrestrial hunter’s saga with a fresh and unique tale.
Bring it on Trachtenberg. ButBadlandswill not be the only thirst-quencher for the fans as the demand for anotherPredatormovie in a different setting starring Hiroyuki Sanada has dominated the internet. The demand is legit and if the movie gets made, it might smash the box office as the demand for it exclusively hinted at the potential marvel.
Prey Success Greenlights Another Predator Movie That Might Upset Fans Demanding Shogun Star Hiroyuki Sanada Joining The Franchise
Fans Demanded Hiroyuki Sanada’s Samurai-Styled Predator Movie
Byron Lafayette sowed the seed of the unique idea of a Predator movie in August 2022. His keen idea soon spread among the Predator fans chanting the same demand on socials. Lafayette— a Los Angeles-based journalist and critic— proposed the idea of aPredatormovie set in Feudal Japan starringMortal KombatandJohn Wick: Chapter 4starHiroyuki Sanadaas a disgraced Ronin.
“Hear me out, a Predator film set in feudal Japan starring Hiroyuki Sanada as a disgraced Ronin, who hunts down The Predator after he fails to protect his master from it. Watch the cash roll in,”Lafayette wrote on Facebook (viaRobert Jefferson/X).
Why not? Modern Predator landscape has been hackneyed and it has undeniably been weary as it pushed the franchise to near death.Prey, set in 300 years before the current landscape, saved the movie series making room for more potential features on the slates. Lafayette’s idea was the epicenter of the escalation of the demand that ruled the internet soon. Fans ensembled demanding the same movie set in Medieval Japan.

Will A Predator Vs. Ronin Film Happen?
With the success ofPrey, it was clearly justified that there are more potential stories to tell with the extraterrestrial monster on a hunting spree. Fans are not short of ideas but mostly leaning towards the same destination. Going back in time with the engrossing Ronin skill fighting the tricky alien may turn out to be classy. Lock that in,Dan Trachtenberg, this might be another jackpot for the franchise.

It would be fair to assume that the makers might listen to the fans’ meticulous demands. Right afterBadlands,perhaps. But the idea should be on the big screen with some epic choreography. And who better to lead the movie than Sanada? The actor has a well-established reputation for bringing charisma on demand right on the screen with his prowess to move swiftly with crafted choreography. Also, as another fan pointed out, Predator resembles Oni—a kind of yōkai, a demon in Japanese legends. So, it fits, Predator could be the representation of Oni or a version of the demon. Regardless, a Predator Vs. Ronin movie is destined to be a hit but the movie must grasp the core of the cultural background and classy action.
Trachtenberg’s 2022 Predator moviePreyis currently streaming on Huhu and Disney+ ESPN+ bundle.
