The Predator may have met its match.

Shane Black’s reboot of Predator has made room for Jacob Tremblay, who broke through with his performance in the Oscar-winning drama Room, reports THR.

Tremblay, who also stars in Mike Flanagan’s long-delayed Before I Wake, plays the son of Boyd Holbrook’s character, who is an ex-Marine.

It was debunked recently that the story sees the popular stalker alien, first seen in the 1987 Arnold Schwarzenegger pic titled simply Predator, in an environment that audiences have not seen: the suburbs. Nobody knows exactly what the sequel is about, although Schwarzenegger is rumored to return to his role.

Holbrook is heading a cast that so far includes Sterling K. Brown, Keegan-Michael Key, Trevante Rhodes and Olivia Munn. Thomas Jane, who stars with Tremblay in Before I Wake, is in negotiations to join the cast.

Black co-wrote the script with Fred Dekker and is directing.

Twentieth Century Fox’s reboot of the sci-fi action franchise plans to film in Vancouver this coming February with a release date set for February 9th, 2018.
