Robert Rodriguez Says "Predators" will Ignore Predator 2 & AVP Films

Robert Rodriguez talks about his new movie and how it will ignore the other Predator and AVP films.
With "Predators" coming out next year Robert Rodriguez had this to say:

“You really need great characters so that the audience feels they’re going on this journey with them,” he told MTV’s Josh Horowitz. “And I like the double-meaning of the title—the predators, are you talking about the creatures or are you talking about this group of humans that are actually going in there against them. Are they going to kill each other off if there were no predators?”

Rodriguez confirmed that the story will be driven by an ensemble cast and won’t take place on Earth. And he’s also hoping his version will wash away the taint of the “Aliens vs. Predator” spin-offs.

“Maybe people will forget all the bad sequels and only think this one and the original exist,” he laughed.

The 1987 original, of course, featured the machine gun stylings of the current Governor of California. If McG could find a way to weave Arnold into May’s “Terminator Salvation,” could Rodriguez pull off the same feat for “Predators”?

“I don’t know,” he said. “That would be really great. We’ve talked about hopefully seeing if he could be involved if we see there’s a place in the script."

I can not wait until this film comes out but I am disappointed that he will be ignoring the other films.

PREDATORS SHOOTS THIS SEPTEMBER

Robert Rodrigiez's Troublemaker Studios is working fast as they plan on shooting Predators, their reboot of Predator on September 28th in Austin, Texas, where they are currently lensing Machete. Being helmed by Nimrod Antal (Vacancy, Bloody Disgusting has learned exclusively that they are currently seeking a "Black", "Asian", "Russian" and "Latino" marine. Got to have some flavor in this "prequel".

In this version, a group of humans will find themselves stranded on a planet home to Predators and must survive the horrors they encounter. James Cameron pulled a similar move with his advancement of the "Alien" franchise in his "Aliens."
