New Predator Movie: Release Date, Cast and Status

No new Predator movie has been announced, and the newest film in the series is Predator: Badlands (2025), directed by Dan Trachtenberg. It opened in the US on November 7, 2025, and as of November 3, 2026 it streams on Hulu in the US and on Disney Plus in the UK and Australia (the full breakdown is on where to watch Predator). So, if you are asking whether a new Predator movie is out now, Badlands is the latest one, and it is already on streaming.

Badlands is the fifth main film, after Predator 1987, Predator 2, Predators 2010 and The Predator 2018. The series also counts four spin-offs: Prey Predator, Predator Killer of Killers, and the two crossovers, Alien vs Predator 2004 and AVP Requiem. The animated Predator: Killer of Killers reached Hulu on June 6, 2025, and it runs 85 minutes.

Badlands follows a young Yautja outcast named Dek, who hunts on the planet Genna alongside a damaged synthetic named Thia. It took $184.6 million worldwide on a $105 million budget, according to Box Office Mojo. That is more than AVP: Alien vs. Predator ($177 million) or The Predator ($161 million), though Prey (2022) and Killer of Killers have no theatrical grosses to compare (more figures sit on the Predator box office page). The film also ends on a sequel hook, but a hook is not a greenlight, and nothing since has produced a title, a writer, a start of filming or a studio statement.

What we know is short: Badlands is the latest film, no sequel is announced, and the person most likely to direct one is busy elsewhere. In my opinion, that is a quieter position than the headlines suggest, because a sequel hook, a strong opening and a director who says he has ideas add up to interest, not to a project.

It could be argued that the series is in a healthy spot. Prey (2022), Killer of Killers and Badlands each took a different angle (a Comanche hunter in 1719, a three story anthology that opens with a Viking raid in 841, and a Yautja lead on another world). Disney said Prey (2022) was the No. 1 premiere on Hulu to date after three days, and Box Office Mojo lists a $40 million US opening for Badlands. Paradoxically, that variety makes a next film harder to guess, since the franchise no longer has one obvious direction. Perhaps the Yautja story continues from Badlands, perhaps Naru gets her sequel, and perhaps the Alien crossover returns. All three are unconfirmed.

My reading is that a Sleeping Beauty project on Trachtenberg's desk means a Predator film is unlikely to be dated soon, though only a studio announcement settles it. Until then, treat any title, date or cast list you see online as unverified, including the numbered guesses.
