Company Disney plans to return franchises to their former glory “Alien“(Alien) and “Predator“(Predator), writes the editor-in-chief of the portal Small Screen Edward Lauder… The fact that alien monsters can find a second wind has been known for a long time, because the franchises went Mickey Mouse House after gaining control of the film division Fox…
So, at the end of last year was officially announcedthat in production there is a series in the universe of “Alien”. Directors involved in the project Ridley Scott and Noah Hawley.
But Lauder’s source claims that Disney intends to turn Alien into a “mega-franchise” by launching many films and TV series. The latter should attract a new audience for streaming services Hulu (in the USA) and Disney + (in Europe and other regions)
We are talking about the segment for “adults” under the brand Star, so no flirting with the rating PG-13: the company is interested in the release of full-fledged action horror games. All projects will be released immediately on streaming services – within the framework of the new strategy “Directly to the consumer“(Direct-2-Consumer).
In November 2023 portal Deadline wrote that the director Dan Trachtenberg attached to the Predator reboot. In January 2023 in Facebook– the group of the film festival Tribal there was a description of the characters for the casting. The project is codenamed “Skulls“(Skulls).
Fan portal in February AvP Galaxy published a preliminary synopsis of the film, the shooting of which should start in May 2023. However, the pandemic could make adjustments to the schedule.
According to preliminary information, the main character will be a 19-year-old “tomboy girl” Key (“No”) from the Comanche people who decided to challenge the “gender stereotypes of their people” to become a warrior. The second character will be her 18-year-old brother Taabe (“Sun”), who should become the new leader.
The older sister taught her brother a lot, but he begins to move away from her after reaching adulthood. Wanting to prove himself in the “masculine world”, Ki decides to help the tribe, which is threatened by “danger.”
Small Screen clarifies that the plans also include an “adult” series about the Predator for Hulu and Disney +. What’s more, Disney hopes to transform the Alien and Predator franchises into their new “horror cinematic universe.”
This means that in the future it is worth waiting for the release of the crossover “Aliens vs. Predator“(AvP). However, while this project is not even in the plans, Lauder’s source summed up.
