Really enjoyed this article, Hicks!
It seems a bit unlikely but I completely welcome a period piece for a Predator sequel/prequel. To have it set in 1715 with a pirate theme, would make the most sense, timeline wise, and would be a lot of fun.
I've also fantasized about a western Predator flick for a long time, even wanting RockStar to do a DLC mission in Red Dead Redemption 2 where the gang needs to try and hunt down a Predator. The idea of a bunch of outlaws being hunted down would be badass.
