Awesome Trailer for the Animated Predator Anthology PREDATOR: KILLER OF KILLERS
The first trailer has just dropped for director Dan Trachtenberg’s new animated Predator anthology titled Predator: Killer of Killers. This is the second project that the filmmaker has been developing while also making Predator: Badlands.
Predator: Killer of Killers is a three-part anthology that puts the focus in Yautja warriors hunting human prey across world history. It’s set to premiere as a Hulu exclusive on June 6th, 2025.
Here’s the synopsis: “The anthology story follows three of the fiercest warriors in human history: a Viking raider guiding her young son on a bloody quest for revenge, a ninja in feudal Japan who turns against his Samurai brother in a brutal battle for succession, and a WWII pilot who takes to the sky to investigate an otherworldly threat to the Allied cause.
“But while all these warriors are killers in their own right, they are merely prey for their new opponent – the ultimate killer of killers.”
The voice cast includes Lindsay LaVanchy, Louis Ozawa, Rick Gonzalez, and Michael Biehn.
This is an incredibly cool project and it looks awesome! I love the animation style and it reminds me of what we saw in Arcane. I’ve always thought that stories about the Predator hunting throughout history would be a cool Idea, and I’m loving what I’m seeing fropm this series!
Trachtenberg co-directed this project alongside Josh Wassung while on location for Predator: Badlands. He said: “We were writing the script for [Killer of Killers] while we were prevising stuff on [Badlands], and then [once on location] in New Zealand, on the way to shoot [Badlands], we would remote with everyone back here and [watch footage] thanks to Starlink.”
When asked why on Earth he’d make two films at once, Trachtenberg said: “This all was like a game of hopscotch…That was dumb. I hope I don’t do it again.”
I can’t wait to watch this! Check out the trailer and tell us what you think!
