On The Table Read Magazine, “the best entertainment eBook magazine UK“, get ready for Predator: Killer of Killers, a thrilling animated anthology hitting Hulu on June 6th, 2025, where Yautja warriors hunt humans across history with a stellar voice cast including Michael Biehn!
Fans of the iconic Predator franchise have a new reason to mark their calendars: Predator: Killer of Killers, a three-part animated anthology film, is set to premiere exclusively on Hulu on June 6th, 2025. This exciting addition to the Predator universe promises to deliver a fresh take on the Yautja warriors, blending visceral action with a unique historical twist.
A Global Hunt Through Time
Unlike its live-action predecessors, Predator: Killer of Killers takes an ambitious leap into animation, presenting three distinct stories that span different eras of human history. Each segment showcases the fearsome Yautja—those extraterrestrial hunters known for their advanced technology and relentless pursuit of worthy prey—as they stalk and battle humans across the globe. From ancient battlefields to more modern conflicts, the anthology weaves a tapestry of thrilling encounters that highlight the timeless clash between predator and prey.
This anthology format offers a creative sandbox for exploring the Yautja’s legacy, giving fans a chance to see how these iconic killers adapt their deadly skills to diverse cultures and time periods. Whether it’s a lone warrior facing a Predator in a forgotten age or a group of soldiers encountering the ultimate hunter, the film promises to expand the lore in bold, imaginative ways.
A Stellar Voice Cast
The project boasts an impressive lineup of voice talent, bringing depth and intensity to the animated chaos. Leading the cast is Lindsay LaVanchy, known for her captivating performances, alongside Louis Ozawa, whose genre credentials include The Man in the High Castle. Rick Gonzalez, a familiar face from Arrow and Reaper, adds his grit to the mix, while Michael Biehn—famous for his roles in Aliens and The Terminator—lends his legendary sci-fi gravitas to the production. Biehn’s involvement, in particular, feels like a nod to the Predator franchise’s roots in the golden age of action-packed science fiction.
Why Animation?
The shift to animation opens up new storytelling possibilities for the Predator series. Free from the constraints of live-action budgets and practical effects, Killer of Killers can fully unleash the Yautja’s ferocity in ways that might have been challenging on a physical set. Expect intricate fight choreography, otherworldly environments, and perhaps even a deeper peek into the Predator’s culture—all rendered in a style that could range from gritty realism to stylized boldness, depending on the creative direction.
Animation also allows the film to appeal to a broader audience, potentially drawing in younger viewers while satisfying longtime fans with its anthology structure. It’s a daring move for a franchise that’s traditionally thrived on practical effects and raw physicality, but one that could breathe new life into the series.
What to Expect
While specific plot details remain under wraps, the premise alone suggests a blend of historical fiction and sci-fi horror. Will we see a samurai dueling a Predator under a blood-red sky? Or perhaps a squad of World War II soldiers facing an enemy far deadlier than they anticipated? The anthology format teases endless possibilities, each story a standalone hunt tied together by the Yautja’s unrelenting pursuit of worthy adversaries.
Given its Hulu exclusivity, Predator: Killer of Killers also signals Disney’s continued investment in the Predator IP following the success of 2022’s Prey. That film, a critical and fan favorite, proved the franchise could evolve while honoring its roots—a legacy this animated outing seems poised to continue.
Mark Your Calendars
With its premiere date fast approaching on June 6th, 2025, Predator: Killer of Killers is shaping up to be a must-watch for sci-fi and horror enthusiasts alike. Whether you’re a die-hard Predator fan or a newcomer curious about the Yautja’s deadly exploits, this animated anthology promises a wild, globe-spanning ride. Tune in to Hulu this summer to witness the killers of killers in action—because when the Predator hunts, no one is safe.
