Predator crossover movie, AvP tries really hard to connect both franchises, especially with the inclusion of Aliens veteran Lance Henriksen as the founder of Weyland Industries (which later becomes Weyland-Yutani after a merger).
What comes afterwards is a chaotic battle between long-dormant Xenomorphs and three Predator hunters, with humans caught in the middle.Īs the first Alien vs. An expedition led by Charles Bishop Weyland (Lance Henriksen) wants to investigate a massive heat signal under the ice on Bouvetøya, an island off the coast of Antarctica. Cast: Sanaa Lathan, Raoul Bova, Lance HenriksenĪfter a failed AvP project which was developed in the 90s, Shane Salerno’s script set the action in (back then) the present day, 2004.Plus, there’s that fun item near the end which now has a connection to Prey. Moreover, Predator 2 introduced the possibility of Xenomorphs existing in the same universe with the brief appearance of a skull displayed as a trophy. It’s very much a sequel to the original movie, with Peter Keyes (Gary Busey) connecting the dots for detective Mike Harrigan (Danny Glover) and expanding on the events of Predator and what humans have learned about the dangerous spacefaring warriors over ten years. However, it quickly helps sell the chaotic and blood-soaked version of Los Angeles the movie wants to play with. The decision to set the movie seven years into the future instead of 1990 is strange, as everything looks and feels one-hundred percent early 90s. Predator 2 ditched the jungle setting of the original movie for the concrete jungle of a twisted vision of Los Angeles seven years into the future (1997) there’s a huge heat wave and crime is running rampant – the perfect destination for our favorite hunters from outer space. Cast: Danny Glover, Gary Busey, Bill Paxton.
