A sequel came in 1990 with Danny Glover and Gary Busey. The first Predator movie, in 1987, saw Arnold Schwarzenegger and a team of commandos facing off against the formidable creature in a jundle. For me, being a descendent, or I guess part of the Lords of the Plains, that's really important to bring back to my nation and to my culture."Īmber Midthunder as Naru in 20th Century Studios' PREY, exclusively on Hulu Not only do you hear Comanche language throughout the English dub, but this is the first time you'll be able to actually click and watch the whole movie in Comanche, not just subtitled. This is the first time that the language component is going to be front and center on this film. When Prey debuts on Hulu, it'll be offered entirely in Comanche as a language option or with Comanche subtitles.Īdded Myers, "For me, language is really important. The Comanche were the fiercest warriors of the time, and I think all indigenous cultures - but the Comanche even more so - have always been portrayed as the sidekick or the villain of a movie." He then thought, "Who is a protagonist that we've never seen in movies before? That's when we realized we've never had a Native American or really an Indigenous culture that has been at the lead of a big movie like this.

The film features a Native Comanche producer, Jhane Myers, plus a cast "comprised almost entirely of Native and First Nation's talent," including Midthunder. In the trailer, Naru, played by Amber Midthunder, says, "It knows how to hunt. "The prey she stalks, and ultimately confronts, turns out to be a highly evolved alien predator with a technically advanced arsenal, resulting in a vicious and terrifying showdown between the two adversaries." "She has been raised in the shadow of some of the most legendary hunters who roam the Great Plains, so when danger threatens her camp, she sets out to protect her people," reads an official logline. Prey takes place 300 years ago in the Comanche Nation, as a young warrior Naru, described as "fierce and highly skilled," must protect her people when they're threatened by the iconic alien that landed on Earth, with high-tech weapons and the ability to be invisible. On Tuesday, 20th Century Studios debuted the first full trailer for Prey, a new entry in the Predator franchise from 10 Cloverfield Lane director Dan Trachtenberg.
