Original Predator getting 3D Blu-ray treatment; no new film coming

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

There goes all the excitement! In case you missed it, earlier today we hit you guys with the news that the official PREDATORS Facebook page released a teaser image with the caption "Something is Coming. #HuntThePredator" in anticipation for its Comic-Con showing. While we so desperately wanted this to be a teaser for a new film, it turns out that it's just for the upcoming 3D PREDATOR Blu-ray. Bummer. Read on for more details.

Hero Complex got word on just what to expect from PREDATOR at this year's Comic-Con writing, "To mark the 3-D Blu-ray release of the 1987 Arnold Schwarzenegger-starring “Predator,” Fox is dedicating a jungle-themed booth to the film and its iconic extra-terrestrial. “Predator” fans will be able to purchase custom-designed mini-figurines featuring their likeness. Because what fan wouldn’t want to see his or her own decapitated head, spine still attached, being held up by a Predator? The action figures will be created using photographs of participants (taken at the booth) and 3-D printing. The figurines will be mailed to buyers after the convention. The booth will also feature a Comic-Con exclusive “Predator 3D” head as well as the opportunity to pre-order the Blu-ray."

Sounds like Fox is going to have a pretty cool set-up for the PREDATOR booth at Comic-Con but it's certainly not what we were all hoping it would be.
