Predator: Killer of Killers Director Dan Trachtenberg on Making His R-rated Anthology Saga
Filmmaker Dan Trachtenberg has made a name for himself by mastering one of Hollywood's trickiest endeavors. In 2016, he made his feature directorial debut by helming the first sequel to Matt Reeves' sci-fi horror franchise with 10 Cloverfield Lane, and in 2022, he brought life back to the Predator franchise with the acclaimed straight-to-streaming sequel Prey.
Now, ahead of the highly anticipated Predator: Badlands, Trachtenberg has re-teamed with The Third Floor CCO, visual effects creative supervisor, and co-director, Joshua Wassung, for Predator: Killer of Killers. It's a feature-length animated anthology that expands the Predator lore through three stories from some of Earth's fiercest warriors. This R-rated addition to the saga takes us through time and space, and adds an emotional depth to the creature features Trachtenberg first explored in Prey.
In this interview with Collider's Steve Weintraub, Trachtenberg discusses his intentions to stick with the sci-fi franchise he's more than proven his dedication to. He talks about whether he'll direct more after Badlands, as well as whether fans will need to see Killer of Killers before its November release. He also shares what he knows about his reported Portal feature adaptation and the Waterworld series.
