The Predator gets new images and TV spot as R-rating confirmed

August 23, 2018 by Amie Cranswick

With its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival just two weeks away, another batch of images have arrived online for The Predator featuring Boyd Holbrook, Keegan Michael Key, Olivia Munn, Trevante Rhodes, and the movies titular lethal hunter, which you can check out below along with a new TV spot…

Meanwhile, it has also been confirmed that The Predator has been rated R for “strong bloody violence, language throughout, and crude sexual references.” The rating shouldn’t come as a surprise, given director Shane Black’s comment last year that “PG-13 is for pussies”.

From the outer reaches of space to the small-town streets of suburbia, the hunt comes home in Shane Black’s explosive reinvention of the Predator series. Now, the universe’s most lethal hunters are stronger, smarter and deadlier than ever before, having genetically upgraded themselves with DNA from other species. When a young boy accidentally triggers their return to Earth, only a ragtag crew of ex-soldiers and a disgruntled science teacher can prevent the end of the human race.

The Predator features a cast that includes Boyd Holbrook (Logan), Trevante Rhodes (Moonlight), Thomas Jane (The Punisher), Augusto Aguilera (The Fifth Man), Jacob Tremblay (Room) Sterling K. Brown (This is Us, The People v. O.J. Simpson), Keegan-Michael Key (Key & Peele), Olivia Munn (X-Men: Apocalypse), Alfie Allen (Game of Thrones), Yvonne Strahovski (Chuck) and Jake Busey (From Dusk Till Dawn: The Series).
