Flop

[Vermillion]

Good point, plus child actors can be great when the director cares to get the performance needed. Some movies where kids are main protagonists and do awesome jobs are:

Room, IT, Moonlight, The Witch, Wonder, Beasts of No Nation, Oculus, Lion, The Road, Annabelle: Creation, True Grit, Southpaw, The Conjuring, Ransom, Man on Fire, Nice Guys, Beasts of The Southern Wild, Aliens, The Good Son, Stand By Me, A Monster Calls, Donnie Darko, Atonement, Leon the Professional, I Am Sam, The Boy in the Striped Pajamas, The Exorcist, The Emporor's Club, Let the Right One in, 6th Sense.

Did the child actor die in any of those films?

So I guess we know who lives at the end of The Predator.

Telegraphed script = Flop

I bet this kid is Wesley Crusher meets Gray Jedi Mary Sue Rey.

Yes, Vermillion, child actor characters died in

Spoiler

The Witch, Beasts of No Nation, IT, Annabelle: Creation, The Good Son, Donnie Darko, The Boy in the Striped Pajamas, and The Butterfly Effect.

. This list is solely the ones I saw and thought were impressive though, so I'm leaving out other films where kids die. Sorry your desire to have a child killed on screen in a movie where only challenging prey are hunted might not be fulfilled. I hope you enjoy the movie anyway despite the extreme telegraph in possibly knowing a character might live. I sure know I always felt suspense in knowing John McClain, Ethan Hunt, James Bond, Indiana Jones, Wyatt Earp, Frank Castle, Jason Bourne, Aron Ralston, etc. might die halfway through their films.

Mmm the kid in The Predator could be some of a challenging prey in a way,

Spoiler

IIRC there was some elements pointing toward that in the end of the script

I'll trust your word and speculate with my imagination but I'm not into reading any more possible spoilers

Any chance you could PM the script or a place that I could seek out it's whereabouts? I'm very very curious to see how this one ends up changing from script to screen. Just like with Predators.

Another good example of child characters dying would be in the movie Mimic. They weren't "main" characters, but they do get murdered pretty hardcore by the bugs.

Okay, I take it back. If this movie ends up being basically Predator vs Kevin from "Home Alone" I'll be thoroughly entertained.

"Are they in the jungle or Kevin's house?" Should be the slogan on the poster. lol

I think this is close to how the kid out-smarts the predators in the film.

They're not going to kill the precocious child protagonist in the Whacky Screwball Adventure Predator movie.
