Jazz Tangcay Artisans Editor“Prey” composer Sarah Schachner factored in two elements when scoring the 1700s-set entry in the “Predator” franchise. “We were making a ‘Predator’ film with all the fun gory action and suspense you’d expect, but the music had to simultaneously tell Naru’s emotional story and her evolution,” she says.The action thriller, set in the Comanche nation, follows Naru, played by Amber Midthunder.
Marc Malkin Senior Film Awards, Events & Lifestyle EditorHollywood newcomer Amber Midthunder stunned at Tuesday’s Los Angeles premiere of Hulu’s “Prey.”“This is from the Sky-Eagle Collection,” she told me about her dress on the arrivals carpet at the Village Regency Theatre in Westwood. “Throughout this whole press tour, it’s been very important to me to incorporate always having an Indigenous designer or jewelry or something like that. So every look that I’ve had, there’s been something Indigenous.”“Prey,” the fifth film in the “Predator” franchise, takes place in the Comanche Nation in 1717.

The Predator franchise is the ugly step-child of horror monster cannon. Fans know about it, are aware of it, but don’t necessarily give it the credit it deserves. With the original film starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, the sequel with Danny Glover, a bunch of Alien vs. Predator crossover films, and an attempt at a reboot in 2018, it is the one franchise that lacks consistency. However, director Dan Trachtenberg gives the film a new edge by inserting the titular monster in an 18th-century setting to see how the people hold up against the advanced technology of the warrior creature.
Carson Burton “Prey” may be an entry in the “Predator” saga, but it stands on its own by taking on-screen representation to the next level. In his first-ever acting role, actor Dakota Beavers looks at the film as a step in the right direction for an industry that has been historically fraught with problems regarding the representation of Native American identities.“Being Native is a part of who I am,” Beavers said. “Being able to represent Native people as accurately as you can with [producer] Jhane Myers — who is a Comanche woman herself — as the producer on this project, just meant the absolute world to me.
“Prey” debuting exclusively on the small screen, as a Hulu original.What began as a straightforward, Joel Silver-produced action movie that saw hard-charging commandoes (led by Arnold Schwarzenegger in one of his most iconic roles) against a technologically advanced alien hunter in the jungles of South America (snappily written by Jim and John Thomas and directed with aplomb by John McTiernan) has blossomed into a vast network of spin-offs, sequels and ancillary materials. The world of “Predator” is big, bold and aside from a boneheaded, PG-13-rated spin-off, very bloody.“Prey” is no different.Set in the Comanche Nation in 1917, it follows a young girl named Naru (a star-making turn from Amber Midthunder), who goes up against the alien warrior in one of the species’ first visits to earth.

The infamous Predator gets a fresh update and an amazing new action hero (Amber Midthunder) in the prequel film out today. “Prey,” the fifth installment of the “Predator” franchise is now available to stream on Hulu.
There’s this whole throughline in “Prey” about “bring it home,” meaning either a mountain line or the alien. “10 Cloverfield Lane” came out in 2016, and you’ve done a ton of great TV work and developed a bunch of projects. But for you, was part of “Prey” trying to “bring it home?”Dan Trachtenberg: I think I relate to this character more than anything else I’ve made except maybe Huey from “The Boys.” I think certainly it’s about me feeling the pressure of making this movie, but also everything in my life since childhood of feeling like, I think I can do something, I think I’m capable of doing it, and having outside forces thinking I can’t, then having my inside forces saying: Maybe you can’t.
Amber Midthunder stars in “Prey,” a prequel to one of the most notorious monster movies of all time. Set 300 years before the events of 1987’s “Predator,” “Prey” follows the titular monster alien and its encounter with one of its first foes on Earth — Naru, a young Comanche woman trained to survive the harshest environments and conditions.In an interview with Native Media Theory, Midthunder talked about the making of “Prey” and the all too rare experience of working on a big budget film where the plot is intrinsically linked to indigenous culture and its people.Mira Sorvino gives an update on awaited ‘Romy and Michele’ sequelLea Michele to star in ‘Funny Girl’: ‘A dream come true is an understatement’A post shared by Predator (@predator)“I try to be very intentional when I take a native-specific role because representation is hugely important and impactful to native communities in so many different ways,” said Midthunder.
“Prey” understands what the “Predator” franchise is all about, delivering incredible action inside of a thoughtfully subversive genre film. It’s almost as good as the original, and that’s really saying something.The first “Predator” stars Arnold Schwarzenegger as the leader of musclebound commandos on a rescue mission in the jungle, only for those seemingly unstoppable tough guys to be eviscerated, mentally and physically, by an even tougher guy from outer space.
