Prey director Dan Trachtenberg explained why the Predator has a skull mask in the new movie. 'It's a little bit stripped down, but still embraces the code that we know a Predator to hunt by...'
Prey director Dan Trachtenberg recently broke down the new skull mask choice for the latest version of the Predator. Set in 1719, the upcoming Predator prequel will focus on Naru , a young Comanche hunter who comes face-to-face with an unseen, ruthless alien while on a hunting ritual. Armed with only her hunting bow, a small ax, and her prowess, Naru takes it upon herself to track and kill the Predator before it wipes out her people.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Due to the fact that Prey is a prequel of the long-running science-fiction horror franchise, Trachtenberg previously revealed that the iconic Predator's design has been changed from previous editions. The alien hunter's weapons have been either adjusted or removed to showcase a less technologically advanced version of the Predator.
You mentioned the skull mask... That was one of the earliest ideas. We wanted to suggest that our creature was much more ferocious. It's a little bit stripped down, but still embraces the code that we know a Predator to hunt by – it's a trophy hunter.
One key aspect of the new Predator redesign is the fact that the alien's lower mandibles are exposed. According to the director, this allows for a greater emotional dynamic previously unseen in a Predator film. Generally, the monster's face is hidden behind the mask until a dramatic reveal later in the story.
The use of an actual skull also more aligns itself with the setting of the Predator prequel. With the film set in the American Great Plains of the early 18th century, the more grounded and naturalistic aesthetic of the Predator blends in with Prey's hunting narrative. As Naru goes on a ritual hunt, the skull she must face closely matches her challenges and goals to prove herself to the tribe.
