Director Dan Trachtenberg brought new footage to the convention alongside stars Elle Fanning and Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi to talk up the movie.

On July 21, Predator: Badlands, which is the seventh film in the main franchise, released its official trailer that shows the two characters battling Predators while also forming a friendship. Here's everything to know about Predator: Badlands.

Predator: Badlands follows an outcast Predator who's forced to set out on his own — that is, until he meets Thia (Elle Fanning), a whip-smart android. Together, they set out on a journey to find and battle an enemy.

The latest movie in the "Predator" series flips the script to focus on the bad guys who always lose to the humans in the end, director Dan Trachtenberg said on Friday.

Badlands," Dan Trachtenberg, said audiences will emotionally "connect" with the iconic hunter in the show out this fall.

Star Wars, however, wasn’t the only inspiration. In prior interviews Trachtenberg has mentioned masterpiece Shadow of the Colossus as inspiring Predator: Badlands, but it turns out there are many other games that factored into the film’s companion mechanic, including Half-Life 2, Uncharted, and God of War.
