Predators preview could inspire cool T-shirts

15/03/2010

Popular movie franchises of years gone by are being rebooted with varied success and the latest one to begin the journey back to the silver screen is Predator. Although this time it's called Predators.

And if you're to believe the film critics, it's looking pretty good.

Robert Rodriguez is behind the movie and as well as unveiling the first snippets of footage and some concept drawings, he also talked a little bit about the story line.

From the look of some of the weird and wonderful creatures he's created, the new flicks will probably inspire a range of cool T-shirts.

It'll be a refreshing change from the likes of Avatar as Rodriguez hasn't used any computer animation to make his predators - they're all played by actors in suits, Wired revealed.

According to director Nimrod Antal, "it's all about being able to see the actors' eyes".

The basic storyline is that a group of humans are transported to a planet where a tribe of predators can hunt them for sport.

It features several big-name stars, most notably Laurence Fishburne and Adrien Brody, playing the band of humans who are trying to escape from the highly specialised killers.

There are going to be plenty of jumpy and gory moments but if you can't wait until July when the movie's released, keep an eye on the official website because a full trailer is due out later this week.
