The hunt is far from over. Today, 20th Century Studios officially announced Predator: Killer of Killers, an original animated action-adventure set in the brutal and beloved Predator universe. The new anthology-style film will premiere exclusively on Hulu on June 6, 2025.
This marks the franchise’s boldest move yet—an animated entry that spans centuries and continents, bringing fans a blood-soaked collection of stories about the deadliest warriors in human history. The concept reimagines what a Predator story can be, pushing the iconic alien hunter into new eras and styles of combat. Watch the trailer below.
A Killer Anthology Across Time
Predator: Killer of Killers features three distinct storylines:
-
A Viking raider, seeking vengeance, guides her young son across a war-torn land drenched in blood and myth.
-
A ninja in feudal Japan, once loyal to his samurai brother, breaks their bond in a violent succession war.
-
A WWII fighter pilot soars into the skies to uncover a mysterious force threatening the Allied cause—only to encounter something far deadlier than expected.
Each warrior may be a killer in their own right, but they soon find themselves prey to a far more lethal force—the Predator, now dubbed the “killer of killers.”
