I think it will be one Predator they hunt down, but in the process discover something horrifying. Predator 2 taught us the military are very aware of the Predator and had learned a lot about it by the time that film took place. Who knows how much they've learned over the past 30 years!
@Krakenbane, I highly doubt that. Not to take in canon B material but the comics and novels mentioned that Yaut'ja females have breasts also female predators have breasts in the concept art
Interesting that they are actively hunting a Predator or group of them. Predator 2 basically did that, with Keyes and his gang, but it just seems...Different here I guess.
But to have a movie in which the main protagonist(s) are hunting the creatures sounds fresh. Hopefully it turns out well!
The fact that his name is NEBRASKA is awesome (because I'm from Nebraska).
Can't wait for more info and when we get to see images of the PREDATOR(s).
I would love it see in any design, as far it give explanation or reason for it.
Like the mask of 1 predator its seems to be more mechanically made, with sleek lines, and the 2 predator mask looks more hammered shaped mask, and I would love get to know the reason behind it, for every different Predators clans or types out there.
looking forward to this
Maybe the ones we are familiar with ARE the females?
I don't think we need to worry about the new Predator looking like a skinny wimp ;)
Yeah, they won't be reinventing the Predator so to speak. However plot leaks revealed there would he a "different" Predator featured as well as the Predator we've come to expect.
If we're to expect some changes or refinements of the creature and weapons designs in this new movie, One might conjecture they would be advances, maybe even evolutionary ones like those supah-peedidilators was supposed to be.
BUT, while I doubt the director guy has anything like this in mind, another way to go when talking design changes could be a Primordial Predator. Something more primitive, brutish, with almost steam-punky type weaponry . . .
Sorry all. I guess I'm typing as I'm thinking this up. Better to get myself and maybe some of you offline and onto the drawing board to see just where that last concept might lead.
Okay, so calling this a reboot is incorrect? Cool. Why would any storyteller want to start over when you've got such a sweet character premise to use already? it sounds like whatever creature and weaponry design changes this new film may feature should be considered refinements, advances, maybe even evolutionary step-ups as was inferred by the introduction of what y'all are calling Super-Predators. I still think your basic Yautja is more than formidable, but it seems its very nature is to keep pushing its own species to achieve next-level talent. Hopefully whatever changes this new movie brings will be kept along those lines and not just reinventing the wheel without good reason.
This would make an awesome contest, Chris, who can design the best "alternate" predator design.
Right @Chris.
I could really see this as the "hybrid" that was mentioned. But, until they release actual imagery for the predator(s) in the film, I'll keep optimistic and accepting of any creature designs released.
Nice! I love the spinal necklace with the emerald beetle.
The third concept from the top is my favorite, it's the closest to the original with a darker, more menacing twist I feel.
@DeDAgheN, yeah unfortunately not many people can appreciate art for what it is and view it with an open mind. I made sure to clarify that these are not related to the film in any way, but sadly that's not stopping some of the backlash. The point was to showcase a talented artist and a design similar to the "organically different" look Shane Black teased.
I quite like the mandibles, it makes him look noble, much like an eagle. Also love the double wrist blades.
i like the hawk beak shape inspiration for head and mandibles, almost crab-like. its beady eyes, and two arm blades. cool conceptual art! stylish
I think it looks cool. But I'm not sure about the mandibles. I prefer the the normal style. I love the double wrist blades though.
That's what I was thinking Facehuggers!.
Of course, this image is bringing out the haters in force.
Definitely reminiscent of the original, unused insectoid concepts!

The Predator will not be dissing Predator 2 by any means. It will take place after both the original and P2. Black even stated in an interview months ago that his Predator sequel would not discredit Predators either. It's all one big inclusive universe.

Awesome, love Yvonne Strahovski!
Dude, WTF is up with him over-casting this thing? I guess no one ever learned anything from AVPR...
WTF too many cooks in this thing, guess they didn't get the PREDATORS memo!
I never really considered them as "super". I just see them as another race of predator. They appear more devout, they take their "hunt" to a different level to the other hunters. They may train harder, longer to become better hunters. I personally cannot see The Predator mentioning them, although Shane Black has said he intends to make this film "epic". I think it will be based on earth (the appearance of a kid is my only reason for this) so I believe it will be the race of Predator from the first movie.

There was some good bits (ones hot ripped-off wholesale from other films I mean), but overall it was average.
That said, we'd need to know what Shane Black has supposedly said about Predator 2 before making a judgement.
I'm a huge fan of Predator 2, and as S.M. pointed out, there's no reason why he'd diss it. It's a solid sequel that creatively expanded lore.
They do all look pretty badass!
Has he in fact, dissed or indicated that he's ignoring Predator 2?
Wait so Hawkins was alive all this time? Lol, awesome, I can't wait.
"shit happens"
I love how they show a bunch of badass marines holding guns with stern faces while there is a dopey kid in the centre of them with a bright yellow jacket.
