‘Predator: Badlands’ Almost featured Nazi’s and a World War II Setting

I recently learned from an interview with The Direct about a really interesting idea director Trachtenberg had while developing Predator: Badlands. He was brainstorming ways to make the Predator the hero of the story, and his initial thought process involved, well, Nazis. He figured everyone agrees Nazis are the bad guys, so it could work! He shared this during the interview, and I found it a fascinating peek into the film’s development.

10 Worst Things to Happen to Spider-Man Comics

Despite featuring Denzel Washington, Gary Oldman, and Mila Kunis, the film The Book of Eli is generally considered a box office disappointment, earning only slightly more than its production cost and receiving a lukewarm 46% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. This is surprising given the star power involved and the directors, Albert and Allen Hughes, had previously worked on well-regarded films like From Hell, Dead Presidents, and Menace II Society. The script wasn’t the problem either, as it was penned by Gary Whitta, known for his excellent work on Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and The Walking Dead: A Telltale Game Series. Many believe the film simply arrived too early and didn’t find its audience at the time.
