‘Predator: Badlands’ emerges as the highest-grossing entry in the franchise’s 38-year history! Watch on digital and Blu-ray


“Here, you’re not the predator. You’re the prey.” 20th Century Studios’ “Predator: Badlands” will soon be available to watch in the comfort of your home.

Director Dan Trachtenberg helms the latest movie in the “Predator” franchise, by forcing the classic movie monster “through a gauntlet.” “Predator: Badlands” is officially the highest-grossing entry in the franchise’s 38-year history, earning $183 million worldwide and beating the previous record holder, 2004’s “Alien vs. Predator” ($177.4M).

In the film, Elle Fanning stars as Thia, a cyborg missing half her body, who teams up with Dek (Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi), a young Predator embarking on his first hunt.
