New ‘Predator: Badlands’ Teaser Puts Spotlight on the ‘Alien’ Franchise Connection

Over 20 years after the franchises first collided on the big screen with Alien vs. Predator, the Alien and Predator sagas come together once again in the upcoming Predator: Badlands.

This time, however, Aliens and Predators won’t be battling it out like WWE superstars. Predator: Badlands provides a more subtle link between the two franchises, with Elle Fanning playing a character named Thia who happens to be a Weyland-Yutani android. Thia ends up a hostile alien planet, forced to team up with an unlikely ally: a young Predator named Dek.

The latest official social media teaser for Predator: Badlands makes the franchise connection crystal clear, with the Weyland-Yutani branding being put front and center. Watch below.

Predator: Badlands will release in theaters on November 7, 2025, in IMAX, Dolby Cinema, RealD 3D, Cinemark XD, 4DX, ScreenX, and premium screens everywhere.

Elle Fanning stars alongside Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi as Dek.

The newest entry in the franchise is set on a remote planet where a young Predator, outcast from his clan, finds an unlikely ally in Thia (Fanning) and embarks on a treacherous journey in search of the ultimate adversary. Dan Trachtenberg (Prey, 10 Cloverfield Lane) is back to direct.
