Shane Black's The Predator has shifted its release date once again. According to Exhibitor Relations, the release date has shifted from August 3rd to September 14, 2018.
"The Predator sets its sights on Sept. 14, 2018 instead of August 3rd. Obviously hoping to scare up some of that mad money Stephen King's IT made last year in what is typically a box office dead zone."
The new release date will pit it up against Alpha, The Darkest Minds, and Fighting With My Family. This is the third time that the film's release date has been changed. Originally scheduled to be released on March 2nd, it was then shifted to February 9th and then August 3rd. It was earlier reported that reshoots were scheduled in Vancouver from March 12th to March 29th.
It is being helmed by Shane Black from a script that was co-written by Black and Fred Dekker. The cast includes Logan‘s Boyd Holbrook, Olivia Munn, Moonlight‘s Trevante Rhodes, Yvonne Strahovski, Jacob Tremblay, Keegan Michael-Key, Alfie Allen, Thomas Jane, Jake Busey, Edward James Olmos, among others. Black has described most of the group as “stone cold killers with some serious acting chops… but which of them will be chopped…,” signifying that most of them will meet an untimely and gory ending.
