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?
