We spoke with our favorite Predator DDNumeroUno, along with ADI team Alec Gillis & Tom Woodruff Jr., about the new design for Prey and Dan Trachtenberg's vision for the hit prequel:
Explore the beginning of the Predator franchise in Prey. The film explores the alien hunters' first trip to Earth as it faces off against fierce Comanche warrior Naru, who is looking to prove herself as a worthy hunter in the eyes of her tribe.
Alec Gillis: Fox has been one of our main clients over the years and we associate Fox with just great sci-fi, so it's always nice to work on a fox movie. We've also done a lot of Disney stuff, with the Santa Claus movies and some other titles, so I wouldn't say we were shoo-ins, but you always have to compete, you got to stay sharp. But we're very happy to be included in this one.
Here I am talking to you and with Tom and Alec, to be able to put our story out there, which we appreciate, because it's great. It's very easy to highlight focus on the main faces of the show, but it's also important to highlight the people behind the scenes and the people under the rubber as well. Dane DiLiegro: That process kind of started before I got there.
Alec, you just mentioned occasionally throwing a few things out. Were there other incarnations of a design for this Predator? Working on the design, you'd obviously seen what was coming. But what were your and Dane's initial reactions to seeing the completed new design? I do really feel like this is the most physical Predator we've seen since the original in that it's very practical and you've got a lot more style with some of your fighting in comparison to past ones. Did a lot of that come from you, the stunt team, from Tom and Alec, from Dan?
Alec Gillis: Steve McMichael was our stunt coordinator and JJ, who's a Korean stuntman, I look at that, I know those guys, they loved quick movements. Dan worked with them much more closely than I did, but you got to give credit to those guys, as well.
But even watching it streaming, it's an absolute cinematic experience and the only thing that caught me off guard is I had so many news reports coming through about how everyone loved the story and they loved the actors and they loved the characters and they loved Dane and they loved the monster.
