First Look at Predators Script!
Predators Movie News | Posted by Darkness on 28 Sep 2009 19:17 GMT
There's a very interesting video commentary on LatinoReview who has had a look at a draft of the script dated dated July 12, 2009. The first look is very positive. They say the script is 'awesome' and providing Fox let Rodriguez handle everything, Fox will have a blockbuster on their hands by next summer. Here's the main points:
To briefly summarize, the film is going to follow a group of eight humans kidnapped by the Predators and let loose in the jungles of the Predator home planet to be hunted for sport. The humans are a multi-cultural combo of badasses including Yakuza, Mexican drug cartel hitmen, Russian mob members, cops and serial killers. And they’re all being stalked by one giant “Super Predator” who has orchestrated the whole event.
-The script isn't PG13, it's a 'bloody, violent, hard R script reminiscent of the original'.
-Story takes place on the Predators' homeplanet... Picture it as one big jungle from the cretaceous period.
-Opening sequence takes place with our main character, Royce, chasing down something on a rooftop. The sequence ends with him killing his prey with the Predator watching. The Predator then kidknaps him. We next see the character parashooting onto the Predator planet.
-Soon after we meet seven other characters who also parashooted onto the planet: Cuchillo, Nikolai, Isabelle, Stans, Mombasa, Hanzo, and Edwin.
-They soon realise they're prey in a game of cat and mouse and they take off on the run in the jungle. The Predator planet is a game reserve.
-A 'Black Super Predator' leads the hunting party of two other Super Predators.
-The characters eventually hook up with an American soldier called Nolan hiding in a cave. They find out that the Predators have been dropping humans into the game preserve for years.
-The script includes a cameo appearance from Arnie.
Danny Trejo Cast in Predators
Update: Danny Trejo will play a character called Cuchillo, a Mexican enforcer with twin uzis strapped to his back.
HOLY SH^T this could be freaking amazing!
