I don’t know how many of you remember this but in October last year, Fox producer Rothman commented on his willingness to do a Predator 3(and the notion of a remake). Well according to horror website Bloody Disgusting, it isn’t a sequel but a remake that is underway:
“We’ve got a holy sh*t scoop for you that’s going to have half of you screaming in excitement and the other throwing tomatoes. A reliable source dropped us a line revealing to us that Robert Rodriquez and his Troublemaker Studios will be producing the Predator reboot for 20th Century Fox. “
According to the scoop, the remake will involve a group of Predators as opposed to the one. You can check out the whole thing over at Bloody Disgusting. Now remember guys, this is only a rumour. I’m waiting back on official comments from Fox. Thanks to Lovely Man for the heads up.
EDIT: According to my contact at Fox PR, I was told there are currently no plans for any Predator re-make in the theatrical division.

interesting... but im sceptic
What a coincidence! I was just thinking about that comment last fall! :o
Now really, what the f**k?? A reboot? if anything make a sequel, Robert Rodriquez isnt a bad filmmaker but why a reboot?
This better be a damn rumour, I think this is the worst news I have ever seen, I hate remakes, why do they need to remake predator, a 3rd predator movie yes, but a remake, no! fox can go f**k themselves >:(
No man... PREDATOR the Classic is unrebootable. >:( I hope they go for another Storyline, or they forget about making Predator 3.
A remake, hmmm..... Not much need for one, but Rodriguez is one of my fave directors, so actually I do hope this is true.
reboot is a lot better than an honest to God remake. try to stay positive people
nevermind. just read the full article. i've got a bad feeling about this...
So many years waiting for good news. I really hope Fox will do something, Remake or Sequel it does not matter, hopefully they got a good script! Tired of superstar bullshit, Sigourney Weaver and his f**king A5 still rumoured but not done, probably caused of money issued. Swarzy if politics dump him would be agree for a movie or two... Tired of those shits!!! This is why I have enjoyed the AVP franchise: Creatures are the mains characters! My feeling for a Predator 3: Go for a movie, but no claim, humility, and a good story por favor, and it will be fine.
This is...Urgh...This has ruined my day. I mean, not just a remake, but a remake with multiple Predators? f**k that.
Ye gods, what is this shit?
Get the f**k out of here. I love the series but NO REMAKES.......SEQUEL for christ sake or just make a third AVP. Leave the classics alone.
Pathetic is the only word I found to describe this. Let me guess, a great classic transform into a Slasher Teenager movie?
Holy sh*t. Great, just don't ruin it like AVP did and make it 18/R rated
w0t? ::)
Rodriguez? We are so freaking screwed. Anybody ever read his script for P3? :P
I'd rather an avp sequel than this, they shouldn't start ruining the original classics, it's like messing with nature >:( >:( >:(
oooh shit,,mi english isnt very good so i dont understant that ;D :'( :'( ;D ,,soo can someone tell mi please what is going on???they want do do it or no?
shit
As long as they don't change the designing of the Predator, I will probably be okay with this... Probably...
I'll wait until more details come through before I make any judgements. But it better not be a direct remake with the same plot and characters called Dutch, Billy, Poncho, etc.. Imagine The Rock playing Dutch. *vomits*
NO NO NO NO NO Predator 3!!!! We need it. >:(
If its a reboot as opossed to it being a remake, then I'm for it. I also hope there's a massive difference between the two.
the old saying DONT FIX WHAT ISNT BROKEN :'( :'(
I cant understand the remake... why not Predator 3...
Aaawww... FECK. I hope this stays a rumor. You simply can't just replace the original Predator. I'd love a sequel. Or even a prequel. But fory crying out load, don't screw with this classic. Of course, a series reboot doesn't necessarily mean "remake". So who knows? It's only a rumor right now, anyway.
It had better not be a f**king reboot. Please God be a sequel.
Bahaha! You gotta love how retarded Fox Entertainment is. I love how there talking about reboot when in reality the only thing that needs a reboot is the AVP franchise, not the Predator franchise lol Jesus Christ Tom Rothman and John Davis just DONT F--KING GET IT lol ;D
Robert Rodriguez? Oh, f**k that. That dude is terrible. Sure, he can make good purposely shitty B movies, but that's because he sucks and can't do anything better.
Well, thats it, I dont care anymore. f**k this, Im done with these franchises. Im just gonna watch my original predator movies and wonder what it would be like if retards never ran FOX.
GOD WHY? WHY? WHAT'S NEXT AN ANDERSON'S ALIEN REBOOT!?!?! OF YOU WANT TO REBOT SOMETHING THAT'S AVP OR ANOTHER SEQUEL TO ALIENS! KEEP NEWT AND HICKS ALIVE! SINCE 1990 THIS IS A NEVER ENDING NIGHTMARE!!!! >:(
wtf why make a remake? they better not change the design of the predator >:(
its been almost 20 years since a good predator movie. i don't see this changing it. keep the predators the same, forget about adi, and i might see it.
They're really going to have to change things to make it work... It could still be in the jungle, thats cool, but it took a whole group of guys to kill one freaky invisible creature in the woods... if you have 3 of them, that means that 2 will have to die right away, and thatll make them look weak... So it would have to be 3 vs an army of soldiers or something, and then its not a reboot really but pred. 3
I agree with frankaster!
Wait a sec, Robert Rodriguez?! OH f**k NO! They can't be serious. He's almost as bad as Tarantino. >:( Those two men should never be allowed behind a camera again. *shudders*
My philosophy, if it aint broke, dont fix it. Predator doesnt need a god damn remake. Do a sequel, not a remake. This film should not be touched, for the orginal was great. FOX sucks.
A remake what the hell, the original predator movie is still one of the greatest movies of all time in my opinion why the hell are they remaking it
If it ain't broke don't fix it. A Predator reboot is just a kick in the guts to the legions of Predator fans and more proof that Fox only care about money over making quality movies. When was the last time Fox made a decent movie....
Just read that a prequel to The Thing is in the works....
hmmm... did you all ever think that maybe it isn't exactly an attempt to 'remake' the movie, like same plot and story, but more so an attempt to re-introduce to everyone, more-so the next generation, to just how wicked the Predator species can be. What I mean is, what if they intend to make a movie that doesn't exactly tie or correlate into the previous other two at all other than the Predator itself, but use the similar jungle setting and pitch it as if we hadn't heard of such a creature yet. Start all over...hey audience heres this creature thats stalking this group of marines etc etc. and heres the story. Like starting all over, hence the term "reboot" NOT 'remake' because in its essence it isn't the same movie done over, it's the same character story done differently. E.G look at the game Turok, same title as original, same main character basis , but different storyline...not a remake, just ...starting over.
Don't know why everyone is so upset. The original Predator won't disappear. Its still here. I think it'll be cool to see another direct a remake/reboot.
No need for a remake by any means................
Fox cares about one thing, and one thing only, and that is profit. Fox ceased caring (if they ever cared) along time ago about what us fans wanted or thought. The AVP films are the perfect example of this. It doesn't matter if this future Predator film is a "remake" or "reboot" because it will be done for maximum profits possible, not quality. Which likely means that true fans, like us, won't find the film very good. I look more forward to the Dark Horse Comics Predator relaunch in June of this year for a decent, quality Predator story. At least Dark Horse Comics makes an attempt at giving a sh*t about their product.
Agreed scorpio
'Reboot' does not equal 'remake'. It can just mean an attempt to re-energise stuff.
f**k me in the beard
*goes out to the grocery store to buy some tomatoes.*
well it sounds as if they ought to call such a movie "Predators"
just like they named that film with multiple aliens running around, Aliens
:) Please tell me this isn't going to be like AVP Predators.They were to bulky.Mabye Wolf's clanmates or something possibly??? ??? :o ;D
So its less of a remake and more a reboot, eh? Given how disjointed one and two were anyway, couldn't this just be considered Predator 3?
So the guy who wanted Space Pirate human predator hybrids is is the go-to guy? :/
Ive waited for Rob Rodriguez to take over since the rumors of 04. Predators will kick ass over anthing AvP.
Not happy to hear about the update.
i wonder which movie will be made 1st: Alien 5? or Predator 3? Predator 3 isn't 20th Century Fox. Alien 5 is.Siggy just have to wait somehow.
No, no remakes.
Uhh Rudy, not sure where you have been buddy, but Fox has ALWAYS owned the rights to both Aliens and Predator. So yes, both an Alien 5 and a Predator 3 would be made by 20th Century Fox.
There is only one possible occurence that would make me more pissed of than I am right now, and that would be if they decided to remake/reboot Alien. Both Alien and Predator are loveable classics that I don't want to see getting destroyed by some fat idiot at FOX who want's some extra cash to by his 43rd swimming pool. The thing is that FOX, as well as other companies, have run out of good ideas. And instead of thinking out new, epic stories to use, they decide to fall back on the old movies that did so well back in the golden years and just add some new special effects, busty chicks and a slightly altered storyline. Then, as long as they put PREDATOR on the poster with big letters, people are gonna watch it. Guaranteed. They may hate it, curse it, write negative reviews and rant all they can, but the fatty at FOX will get his swimming pool, and he'll use the same formula again next time, and make a Predator 2 remake, featuring the Predator knowing kung-fu and using a huge bazooka. Sequels doesn't bother me, in fact, they often provide good fun even if they're not comparable to the first movie, but it's a completely different story if they decides to f**k up the first one with a remake. I really hope this idea of a remake made by Rodriguez is a rumour, and that they instead use this idea to create a Predator 3. Sequels is what we need, FOX, not remakes! But ah, what the hell, they never listens to us fans...
Wow, I had a feeling that this would happen. Look, I dont think they need to REMAKE it, but do a REBOOT, like Batman Begins. This is really interesting. I think Rodriguez should direct it, or be some sort of producer. I like the idea. Just get good people involved and an interesting story that doesn't seem just like a copy of the original film.
So because of AVP, Predators have been messing with humans for thousands of years. They could write a story anytime, anywhere in history, Samurai's, Spartans, the imagination is your limit......and they choose....... a remake ::)
Thats all I gotz to say...
f**k that its gunna suck!!!
Most of us don't want this... mostly! Rodriguez is pretty good though. Might as well check it out.
I just don't understand most of people against the idea of a Predator sequel or reboot. We already know the movie ll not gonna meet fans expectation. But who care? Predator franchise could be back on screen...Ans it's sound great to me! Am I wrong?
to hell with a remake! reboot means remake, really dumb idead
Why do they have to do a remake or reboot of a movie that was and still is perfect?? I can see rebooting hulk, but predator come on!!! what's next reboot of alien?

Dutch said it best "BAD IDEA"
Hrmmm. Just hope fox doesn't "change" predator appearance :'( and do hope they don't make anything AvP related.
Rodriguez and Predator? And I thought my jokes were bad.
Finally a new predator movie iv been waiting for years! :) :) ;D :o ::)
I have 2 ideas for characters of predators DARK BLADE CLAN AND BAD BLOOD ''I HAVE A DREAM'' AND THATS IT!!!
::) NO TO A REMAKE/REBOOT/PREQUEL/AVP 3/RE-IMAGINING
>:( ENOUGH with the DAMN REMAKES, just make PREDATOR 3, a good one NO MORE AVP SHIT! AVP 1 WAS ALRIGHT, BUT AVP 2 WAS CRAP!
Hell no i dont want fox to do a freaking remake that sounds so terrible. i rather see a sequel to predator 3 and have it either in a desert, jungle, or a city again. the idea i have for predator 3 is to be in new york city and having a rogue predator hunting everything and everyone in his path. it would have danny glover back to play mike harrigan and adam baldwin to play garber. it would also have michael biehn and jenette goldstein in it as homicide detectives. i think my idea is more better than the dumbass remake idea or reboot. i think robert rodriquez is a cool director loved his movie planet terror but him doing a remake HELL FREAKING NO!!
Hey, whats shakin? Predator 3 is a great idea! Aliens vs Predator is outstanding but the Predator doesnt get enough credit by itself. I would like to see it as a sequel more than a remake though.
