There’s a new interview over on MTV Movies Blog with actress Alice Braga who will be playing Isabelle in Predators. She talks about the cast, particularly Adrian Brody and director Nimród Antal. She was also asked about an Arnie cameo but didn’t give anything away.

MTV News: So some footage is about to debut in  Austin. Have you seen any of it yet?

Alice Braga: I haven’t seen. I saw it on set, some  of the things. I’m really excited because it was a really cool project.  We had a lot of fun on set. By what I’ve seen, the photography is  beautiful. Gyula Pados is the [director of photography]. And Nimrod  Antal is the director. But the predators, fans, they look really cool! I  was really scared. The guys that play them, they’re really tall.

MTV News: In terms of special effects, how much is  it going to be CGI and how much is going to be practical effects?

Braga: Should I answer that? They really nailed it  out. I think it was nice that they took a long time to go back to make  the Predators. Being the only girl in the film, I had a blast.

MTV News: Tell us about your character. She’s a  special forces soldier?

Braga: She’s a girl from special forces. She’s a  tough cookie. She’s a sniper. She jumps into the story and is trying to  run for her life, which is classic “Predator” films.

MTV News: Such a great  cast. We’re looking forward to seeing Adrien Brody in an action  role, which people were a little  skeptical about. What was he like on set in embodying that action  hero?

Braga: He was amazing. When we arrived in Hawaii  where we first started shooting the film, it was really interesting that  he was willing to really get stronger because his body is naturally  thin. All of us, we bonded together as a team. We were working out  together. He really changed his body, which is great because he  challenged himself to do something he hasn’t been doing. I think he’s  done it for some films, but never as an action hero. I think he did a  great job. I think people are going to be really impressed with his  work. He’s a phenomenal actor and really a great person. And a great  friend.

MTV News: What is it about Nimrod, in his approach  on set and how he pulls everything together, that has everyone so  excited?

Braga: He’s one of the nicest directors that I’ve  worked with. He’s involved and passionate. Not only technically and with  the crew, but with the actors. Nimrod is really passionate about action  figures! He has a lot of toys in his office. He’s like a boy. Being  directed by someone who loves that type of film is a blast. He feels  like a kid on set telling that story. It’s great for the fans to have  someone like him directing this film because he will bring what the fans  want to see.

MTV News: Did Arnold Schwarzenegger show up on set?  Are we gonna see that rumored  cameo?

Braga: Who knows? You’re not gonna get it out of me!

Thanks to Lt. Mike Harrigan and Chris for the news.

The big problem with AvP is that they tried to turn the franchise into something wasn't.  They took two R-rated movie monsters and tried to make a PG-13 movie out of them.  I'm not sure who thought that was actually going to work.  As long as they stay true to the franchise we ought to have an entertaining movie.

If its not cheesy, and doesnt try to be like the frist 2, it wont. But if its another avpr this could very well be the death of all of this, because between the average game (avp 2010) and the horrible avp movies they are really killing the trilogy. In my opinion they need to seperate the 2 for a while and start making aliens and predator movies again, so lets hope this doesnt f**k up!

To my surprise I'm getting more and more giddy over this film every time I hear more news.

Sounds like the same old story of "the fans are going to love this." I'll remain cautious about this film until it actually comes out.

I wonder if he has any Kenner Predator action figures in his office

@ Ephemeriis  Actually FOX turned AvP: Requiem into an R rated movie, after the failure of the first film, and that was even WORSE than what Paul Anderson did. In the end, it's not about ratings, or even who's in the movie....its about the quality in the storytelling.  Something Anderson did have to his credit, but had his head turned by FOX to make AvP for accessible, and hence why it really failed.  As for the Strausse Bros. they just had no clue at all and decided to give everyone what they wanted, proving that even when you get what you want with FOX as they did, if your incapable of ideas to start with, you shoudln't be let anywhere near a franchise like AvP.

I am like all of u disgusted by what FOX have done to both these legendary franchises but what we all need to remember Robert Rodriguez is in total control of whats happening and they went to him to film a script he had written years ago and was told years ago wouldn't be made!!!! This film is gonna be amazing!!! The casting is off the wall slightly but Adrien Brody, Topher Grace, Laurence Fishburne is exciting and all have done really well in the films they've done!!!! Lets get behind this film and if it flops then.......well it wont!!!

@RoaryUK: meh. Anderson still made decisions like the one to go with fat, retarded looking Predator suits. if AVP had been R, we'd still be watching a pro-Alien biased movie with ridiculous costumes.
