of Hulu Predator restart, Smooth, has been a hit with fans and critics alike, and while a sequel has yet to be confirmed, the film’s credits do set the stage for one! Find more details here…
Prey is supposed to serve as a fresh start for the Predator franchise, but that doesn’t mean the movie isn’t setting the stage for future stories! While Amber Midthunder’s Naru eventually defeats the alien invader, her happy ending doesn’t last if you pay too much attention to the credits. In the style of the Comanche Nation illustrations, the events of the film are recapped, but as SFFGazette.com explains, there’s something at the end. We don’t have a post-credits scene in Prey, but as we see Naru and her clan celebrating the Predator’s death, there is an extra scene. As you can see below, it looks like the rest of the Predators aren’t taking kindly to their fellow hunter being killed and are preparing to attack Earth and this race with a full-scale invasion. Unfortunately, it’s hard to say how well Naru and company will fare against an entire legion of Predators, but an all-out war movie could be a lot of fun. “I think there’s definitely something…because so many movies are seen as franchise starters, there’s something inherently refreshing about a movie that feels complete. I hope this movie is complete,” director Dan Trachtenberg told us last month. “That said, we’re doing something very unique in this, whereas other films might have a post-production scene, we have some narration at the end of our credits.” “It leaves room for a lot of different kinds of sequels to happen. I don’t know if we’re ready to say exactly what we want to do next, but I think there are a lot of good opportunities.” It sounds like the director has one eye on the future, and given the positive response to Prey so far, we’d be seeing a sequel coming to Hulu sooner rather than later. For now, though, this tease is a fun way to start thinking about where the story might go next.
