Will Schwarzenegger Fight the 'Predator' Again?

DateMonday, September 22, 2008 at 10:42AM
Producer John Davis, touting his new film The Express, recently opened up to Collider about a number of different projects, including The Sims movie, that remake of Jason and the Argonauts, and a possible third Predator flick.

Of Jason, Davis reports that Zak Penn is writing the screenplay and "one of the biggest" directors ever is interested. He neither confirmed nor denied that the director in question was Steven Spielberg.

The Predator threequel is pretty interesting, too. It was Davis' first film credit as a producer, and he has since gone on to get behind over 75 movies since. But he says there's interest in another Predator movie from someone you'd think would have to be involved.

"Well, the Governor has mentioned to me that when he ceases to be Governor, if he doesn’t run for the Senate and all of that stuff, he’d like to do a movie or two again. And I don’t know, maybe we could restart the Predator franchise," said Davis, who we can assume is pretty bad at poker.

"We’d have to come up with a really good script and a really great angle on it, but Predator was the first movie I was ever involved with, so it’s always going to have a really soft spot in my heart." Davis added that "we’ve logically done what we could’ve done" with the AVP franchise, so that's probably dead.

But a third Predator? What would a 65-year-old Arnold do there? I guess if Stallone can go back to Rambo, we can't condemn Schwarzenegger for doing the same thing. All I ask is that Jesse Ventura still hasn't found time to bleed.

Arnold can have a cameo, he just cant cut it against a predator now.

Still I would prefer more AVP, only more like "aliens" and set in the future, centered around some colonial marines.

65 year old Dutch as a patient in veterans mental hospital envisioning nuclear Predator holocaust. Kathy Holmes as a young psychiatrist, trying to make him sane again.
