The Predator and Alien franchises have seen a bit of a renaissance thanks to a trio of well-received projects on the big and small screen, including Prey, Alien Romulus, and Predator: Killer of Killers.

Comic-Con 2025 is about to reenter the Grid. Disney will unveil details about “Tron: Ares,” which stars Jared Leto, Jeff Bridges and Greta Lee at an evening presentation in Comic-Con’s famed Hall H.

Predator: Badlands’ new trailer shows off much more of the movie, reveals even more connections to the Alien franchise, and even teases a big mech fight.

Badlands trailer is full of alien beasts, gorgeous sci-fi vistas, and a Yautja hero who finds an unlikely ally in a synthetic.

Dan Trachtenberg finally gets the Comic-Con he dreamt of when he was a young fan. Disney was in full on show, don’t tell mode for Predator: Badlands, unveiling the intense first 15 minutes of the upcoming sci-fi adventure movie for a primed Comic-Con crowd.

Predator: Badlands just got a truly kickass new trailer that showcases a young Yautja on its first hunt, tracking down an unkillable quarry on a hostile alien planet. He's not alone, as Elle Fanning's Weyland-Yutani android Thia is along for the ride.

The Predator franchise has made a roaring comeback in the last few years – largely thanks to the efforts of filmmaker Dan Trachtenberg, who surprised everyone with his Predator prequel film Prey in 2022.

Badlands has raised immense anticipation and curiosity among the audience about whether, in this film, the worlds of the alien and the predators will collide

Before the first 15 minutes were shown, the Badlands panel began with one of the Predator warriors coming on stage and scanning the Hall H audience with his uber-multi-color-vision (the projection of what he saw, projected on the screen). Suddenly he spots the moderator, filmmaker Kevin Smith.

Badlands," Dan Trachtenberg, said audiences will emotionally "connect" with the iconic hunter in the show out this fall.
