Prey Director Teases the Possibility of an Arnold Schwarzenneger Cameo in the Sequel

Prey director Dan Trachtenberg recently expressed interest in seeing Arnold Schwarzenneger and Danny Glover appear in the next Predator movie.Trachtenberg teased the possibility of Schwarzenneger and Glover reprising their respective Predator franchise roles in a follow-up to prequel outing Prey during an interview with Variety. “I don’t know how to do things, but I’m learning how to do things,” he said. “I did learn there was an attempt to have Arnold in [2010’s third Predator installment] Predators. All I’ll say is — there’s still time for those guys [to cameo in a new Predator movie]. They’re still around, and wouldn’t that be awesome?” Schwarzenneger portrayed original Predator protagonist Major Alan “Dutch” Schaefer, while Glover headlined Predator 2 as Lieutenant Mike Harrigan. To date, neither actor has shown up in additional big screen entries in the Predator canon.Prey is the latest addition to that canon, although recent comments by Trachtenberg suggest this almost wasn’t the case. According to the director, Prey’s production team pitched him on the idea of retooling the project as its own unique IP after concerns Disney’s acquisition of 20th Century Fox could create issues around the rights to Predator. Trachtenberg balked at this proposal, however, as he felt that Prey would benefit from the franchise’s established iconography and world-building. “There’s something lovely about Predator where it’s like, ‘Oh, cool, that’s been sorted. I know what it does, it looks awesome. We all love the design of it. It’s got a specific rule set and tool set and all those things,'” he explained.Related: Prey: Hulu’s Predator Prequel Finally Gets a 4K, Blu-ray Release
