This is the official synopsis: "From the outer reaches of space to the small-town streets of suburbia, the hunt comes home in Shane Black’s explosive reinvention of the Predator series. Now, the universe’s most lethal hunters are stronger, smarter and deadlier than ever before, having genetically upgraded themselves with DNA from other species. When a young boy accidentally triggers their return to Earth, only a ragtag crew of ex-soldiers and a disgruntled science teacher can prevent the end of the human race.”



The Predator moved the release date to Sept. 14, 2018, from the original date of August 3rd. Obviously hoping to scare up some of that mad money Stephen King's IT made last year in what is typically a box office dead zone. The September 14th release date will pit it up against Alpha, The Darkest Minds , and Fighting With My Family . This was the third time that the film's release date has been changed. Originally scheduled to be released on March 2nd, it was then shifted to February 9th and then August 3rd. It was earlier reported that reshoots were scheduled in Vancouver from March 12th to March 29th.



It is being helmed by Shane Black from a script that was co-written by Black and Fred Dekker. The cast includes Logan‘s Boyd Holbrook, Olivia Munn, Moonlight‘s Trevante Rhodes, Yvonne Strahovski, Jacob Tremblay, Keegan Michael-Key, Alfie Allen, Thomas Jane, Jake Busey, Edward James Olmos, among others. Black has described most of the group as “stone cold killers with some serious acting chops… but which of them will be chopped…,” signifying that most of them will meet an untimely and gory ending.
