Casting an actor or actress to face down the legendary adversary The Predator is not an easy task.
You can cast young Jacob Tremblay, the way that Shane Black did when he took a swing at the property.
OK, maybe the Shane Black version, The Predator, leaned heavier on the comedy and patter, but that’s because he hired comedians like Keegan-Michael Key to be in his ensemble.
You can take the wish-fulfilment machismo of the Arnold Schwarzenegger entry, which kick started the franchise.
