Arnold Schwarzenegger Makes Long-Awaited PREDATOR Return In New KILLER OF KILLERS Extended Ending

Predator: Killer of Killers has been updated with a new extended ending on Hulu, and it features the return of Arnold Schwarzenegger's Dutch and Danny Glover's Lt. Mike Harrigan. Check it out here...

Predator: Killer of Killers is an animated anthology movie that introduces Ursa, Kenji, and Torres, three warriors who hail from three distinct moments in history. Ursa is a Viking, Kenji is a ninja in feudal Japan, and Torres is a World War II pilot.

After each of them survives encounters with the Yautja, we learn that they were taken from Earth and placed in suspended animation by the alien warriors. They're woken up by the "Grendel King," the apparent leader of the Predators, who forces them to do battle before he faces the victor. 

With Predator: Killer of Killers, filmmaker Dan Trachtenberg finally explained why the Yautja go on these hunts. Whether it's to track humans or their fellow aliens, the endgame seems to be testing the species they consider beneath them and then battling those they deem worthy in the name of honour and entertainment. 

In the movie's closing moments, hundreds of warriors of all species are revealed to have been put in cryogenesis by the Predators. Ursa is placed back among them, and the camera pans to Amber Midthunder's Naru, the protagonist of 2022's Prey

During yesterday evening's Predator: Badlands panel at the San Diego Comic-Con, Trachtenberg announced that the movie is now streaming with an extended ending on Hulu. 

In that, the camera now moves beyond Naru, revealing Arnold Schwarzenegger's Dutch from Predator and Danny Glover's Lt. Mike Harrigan from Predator 2. What, if anything, does Trachtenberg have planned for these iconic characters? That remains to be seen, and there's currently nothing to suggest that either actor will reprise their respective roles in animation or live-action.

Still, with the fates of both Dutch and Harrigan now confirmed, it feels like we're one step closer to seeing this sci-fi franchise revisit its roots.

It feels like we're building to a huge crossover, and, at the same time, it seems the filmmaker might be plotting a new Alien vs. Predator movie

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.

However, while all these warriors are killers in their own right, they are merely prey for their new opponent: the ultimate killer of killers.

Predator: Killer of Killers is now streaming on Hulu and Disney+. A new poster for Predator: Badlands has also been released (via SFFGazette.com).

If a 120 pound girl can take down a Predator, then what’s the point of an expert muscle bound mercenary or grizzled LAPD cop. These things are the worst hunters in t he galaxy.

@Bucky74 - Crazy idea, but if you actually pay attention to the movies and focus less on the sweaty, glistening man muscles, you'd realize that every time a Predator is taken down by a human, its because he's outsmarted by the protagonist.

@Bucky74 - she beat them using her brain. That’s how they all won. They beat them using their brains.

@Bucky74 - A Predator movie has never ended with a human killing the Predator Predator with brute force. Even Arnold had to use traps and tricks.

@Bucky74 - the Predators are not invincible. We have seen them injured and/or killed in every film feature they’ve been in. Their strength and technology makes them hugely formidable against foes who are very strong (large animals and feral alien species for example) but they can be outsmarted by more cerebral foes like humans. Regardless, they seem to face death with no fear and every battle they lose is something they use to learn from and continue evolving into the ultimate warrior.

@Bucky74 - not sure you understand the idea of science fiction.
Just fyi: none of this is real.

Rocky shouldn't have been able to beat Drago.
Superman shouldn't have been able to defeat three bad guys as strong as him.
One 110 pd girl shouldn't be able to defeat multiple vampires.
No one really flies around the universe in weird spaceships and moves objects with their minds plus chops bad guys up with lazer swords.
Pro wrestlers really aren't good acting in movies despite the fact they act for a living...

@FinnishDude - Fair enough, I guess. But even the beating he took at the hands of the creature should be too much for a 120 pound girl

@lazlodaytona - You can still have some semblance of credibility in your sci fi. A highly trained soldier or gritty cop can take a beating from an alien killer unlike a 120 pound girl and use their trining to outsmart the creature. It’s still more believable

I'd probably feel something if the films were good, Prey scratched mid at best and that animated one was a children's Disney cartoon. The guy behind these is a fan which is cool but these films should be held to a higher standard. Black killed the franchise, this dude "brought it back" but left out the intestines.

So wait.... Other Predators went back to Earth to capture Dutch and Mike and Naru, after surviving the events of their movies, just to put them on ice?

That's.... Dumb.

This was definitely created for ComicCon and I’m sure this wasn’t part of the original idea. Ehh, it’s still cool though. Adrian Brody definitely earned a spot in one of those pods.

@WruceBayne - Predators just being criminally disregarded, as usual.

@WruceBayne - Brody's film is very close to my favorite one. Just a hair under Arnie's original.

Could be interesting if they brought back those characters. As long as they do it right and not spoil the franchise.

@hue66 - Naru is gonna approach Dutch and give him a gun, then he'll throw it over a cliffside. 😂

@TheWinkler - Unlike the Last Jedi, that would actually fit Dutch's character

I loved the movie. But I can see the Grendel King is capturing previous people who killed predators and wants sport. Maybe we will learn in badlands.

I thought it was established in the movie Predators ( the 3rd Movie ) , that Dutch was active way after the end of the 1st movie. The scene near the waterfall where Royce realises the girl knows about Predators ( via Dutch )
lazlodaytona
lazlodaytona - 7/26/2025, 6:09 PM
@GeekLegionofDoom - good call
Nate212
Nate212 - 7/26/2025, 6:26 PM
@GeekLegionofDoom - They never actually stated that he was active, just that Isabelle knew about Dutch's mission and run in the with the Yautja. But the Hunting Grounds game does say through recordings that he's been working in the shadows hunting down Predators since the end of the first film and in 2025 he undergoes an experimental treatment to bond his DNA with a Predator's DNA so that he can continue fighting. Maybe the game will be seen as canon and they'll use the DNA thing / de-aging in a sequel to explain why he looks younger.

MouthyMerc - 7/26/2025, 6:51 PM
@Nate212 - good call on the game because I was about to say the game with the Dutch audio recordings made it canon to the films so maybe this ending makes the game non canon now.

Can't wait for the inevitable cross-over with all protagonists from each movie. And I mean that sincerely. KoK had a great animation, and wanna see more of that.
