The excitement around the Predator franchise continues to build with the upcoming animated anthology, Predator: Killer of Killers, set to premiere on Hulu on June 6, 2025. Directed by the acclaimed Dan Trachtenberg, who is also at the helm of the eagerly anticipated Predator: Badlands, fans are buzzing with speculation about possible connections to the Xenomorphs from the Alien series.
Predator: Killer of Killers promises to showcase three intense narratives centered around some of history's most formidable warriors: a Viking raider on a vengeful quest with her son, a ninja in feudal Japan caught in a deadly familial conflict, and a WWII pilot confronting an extraterrestrial menace. Each story pits these characters against the iconic Predator, setting the stage for thrilling confrontations.
While the official synopsis from 20th Century Studios focuses on the human-Predator dynamic, the rumor mill is churning with theories about a potential Xenomorph crossover. Given Trachtenberg's involvement and the successful integration of Predator and Alien elements in past projects, fans are hopeful for a surprise link to the Xenomorphs in Predator: Killer of Killers.
As the release date approaches, anticipation grows not only for the standalone stories but also for any hints or teasers that might connect this film to the broader universe shared with the Alien franchise. Keep an eye out for more updates as we get closer to the premiere.
