Yes, Fox are rebooting Predator..again. THR report that the studio will relaunch the franchise with Shane Black on board to write the initial treatment, and then possibly direct. The actual script will be provided by Black's pal, Fred Dekker, with whom he wrote '80s cult favorite Monster Squad with. I'm sure you're asking yourself why they don't simply follow on from the last flick Predators (which wasn't great to be fair) with a new cast and setting, but this is the way things are done in Hollywood now and that's that. John Davis, who produced the original with Joel Silver and Lawrence Gordon, will also produce the reboot. What do you guys make of this?

This could be epic, or it could flop.

But I am leaning towards 'epic'.

I thought that Predators was enough of a reboot/sequel that they could go on from there. Loved that movie. I mean reboot or not, surely they can't completely redesign a creature so iconic?!

@alibaba - It was a good movie, I always wondered where they came from and they answered that question really well in the movie.

Is it taking place during Christmas with a stupid twist that the Predator is an actor in a costume?

Can anyone imagine how pissed off fans would be if at the end of the movie, the final predator takes off his mask and is revealed to be an actor???

They should make an "Expendables" - like Predator, to me that's basically what the first one felt like, it had Arnold, Carl Weathers, Jesse Ventura, they should update it, include The Rock, maybe bring back Arnold, Stalone, Chris Hemsworth, Terry Crews....
