"Stone killers with serious acting chops."

8 Comments

The Predator is currently in production, and director Shane Black has tweeted another image from the set of the sci-fi action reboot. Following last month's cast shot, this new picture gives us a first look at three more characters.

It shows Alfie Allen (Games of Thrones), Augusto Aguilera (Chasing Life), and Thomas Jane (The Punisher), alongside Keegan-Michael Key (Keanu, Key & Peele), Boyd Holbrook (Narcos, Logan), and Trevante Rhodes (Moonlight). Check it out below:

In a recent interview, Rhodes spoke about his character in The Predator. "He's a Special Forces cat," he told Cinemablend. "He's best friends with Boyd Holbrook's character. I don't know how much I'm allowed to say... [His name is] Nebraska Williams. It's a real cool thing--it's a real cool story, honestly. It's a really cool character, man, and it's a Shane Black film. It's Predator, but it's also a Shane Black film."

Black is best known for directing Iron Man 3, as well as the recent action comedy The Nice Guys. He also wrote the original Lethal Weapon and The Last Boy Scout.

Last year Black explained that The Predator would have a much larger scale than the previous films in the franchise. "I think the first one was great, and it was contained, and it was a perfect little gem for what it was," he said." I think there's an expansion that needs to take place, and also just a love for that era, that movie, and the mythology of the Predator.

"I think that they came to me knowing pretty much that... they said, basically, if I wanted to make Predator but treat it like it was Iron Man 3 instead of just another little movie. I said, 'Let's really do it right this time.'"

The Predator also stars Olivia Munn, Sterling K. Brown, and Jacob Tremblay. It hits theaters on March 2, 2018.
