Positive, Let’s Do One other Alien vs. Predator

This weekend’s Alien: Romulus is getting pretty well-reviewed and looks like it’s performed its job in revitalizing the horror franchise. Funnily sufficient, the identical factor occurred with the Predator sequence and the beautiful glorious Prey again in 2022. Each manufacturers have now gotten a stable film underneath their belts within the post-Disney/Fox merger, main some to consider if we must always possibly give Alien vs. Predator one other go?

Fede Alvarez certain appears to assume so. Speaking to Deadline through the Romulus crimson carpet, the director believes it’d be value doing, primarily as a workforce effort with Prey director Dan Trachtenberg. “We must always do like Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez did with From Nightfall Until Daybreak,” he recommended. “We’ll do this. I direct one half, he directs the opposite half. There you go, that’s the pitch.” As Fangoria notes, he would possibly be extra precisely referring to Tarantino and Rodriguez’s 2007 double characteristic Grindhouse, made up of the previous’s Demise Proof and the latter’s Planet Terror. Both approach, it’s a gag pitch on Alvarez’s half, however possibly there’s the seed of an concept there, and it’ll bloom in a couple of years.

The unique Alien vs. Predator turned 20 years previous earlier this week, and it’s bought a particular place within the hearts of Alien and Predator followers. Is it silly? No doubt, however it’s the enjoyable type of dumb, and Sanaa Lathan’s doing the rattling factor. (The sequel, in the meantime, simply exists.) It’d be enjoyable to see what a brand new conflict appears to be like like within the wake of each franchises’ resurgence, however possibly after every of them get one other movie or two, simply so there’s a stable basis. On the very least, we’re getting extra Predator motion pictures, beginning with Badlands coming someday within the close to future. As for extra Alien, there’s FX’s 2025 present Alien: Earthhowever no movies past Romulus fairly but. And if we will’t get a crossover, possibly somebody at twentieth Century can pull some strings and launch that anime they apparently made and shelved?
