Disney has surprised fans of the Predator franchise by announcing the release of a new animated series titled Predator: Killer of Killers, scheduled for June 6, 2025, on the Disney+ platform. This project, following the recent successes in the medium like Arcane, promises to deliver a high-quality visual and narrative experience, in line with the expectations that followers have of the saga.
A new series that promises to delight fans
The series will be directed by Dan Trachtenberg, known for his work on Prey, the latest film in the saga that was well received by critics and fans. With his new role at the helm of the franchise, Trachtenberg aims to bring the fearsome Predator to face not only the most iconic warriors in history but also various civilizations in different eras.
The first teaser shows us the Predator in three historical periods: the Viking era, where it will fight against Nordic warriors; the Heian period in Japan, with a confrontation against samurais; and during World War II, where it will be immersed in aerial battles against warplanes. This variety of settings promises a rich narrative, offering fans a mix of intense action and fascinating cultural explorations.
As the narrative of the Predator world is reshaped, fans can expect a series that not only honors the roots of the franchise but also seeks to innovate with bold stories that reveal the multiple facets of this iconic hunter. The anticipation is high, as each era represented is an opportunity to see the Predator unleashing its ferocity in a completely different context.
