Predator / Independence Day crossover teased in Badlands?
Like the Trophy room in Predator 2 acted as a foreshadow for the clash between the Alien Xenomorph and Predator, the Badlands teaser featured a very recognizable Skull on the new Trophy wall as well. Fans were quick to notice what looks like a skull of a Harvester, the locust-like Alien race featured in Independence Day:
20th Century Studios and Disney do also own the rights to Independence Day, so it's not completely off the table to assume a crossover between ID4 and Predator could occur.
I've always been a fan of Independence Day and the lore from that franchise as well. I think a crossover between these two Alien species would be pretty awesome to witness. I've written some blog posts about ID that might be of interest too:

What do you guys think? Would this also mean the ID4 aliens exist in the same one as the Xenomorphs? So many crossover potentials...

Some are suggesting the skull could also belong to one of the Aliens from War of the Worlds:
Honestly, it's a toss up. Both alien species share a similar cranium shape and design. The scale reference to the Human skull still makes me think it belongs to an Independence Day Harvester, but until we get a clearer and closer look, it's anyone's guess.
