Nimrod Antal to Direct Predators?

Source:  Latino Review
Latino Review is reporting that Vacancy and Armored director Nimrod Antal is the top contender to direct 20th Century Fox and Robert Rodriguez's revamping of Predators, scripted by Alex Litvak.

Previously announced, Neil Marshall was being eyed for the director's chair. Opening in theaters July 7, 2010, the film is expected to give the previous film a facelift.

No production date has been set.

put it this way, if they fuck this up it might make hollywood realise that remakes will cost them money more than make money(fingers crossed)

OOOOOO loooooook i though this was a sequel to the original movie, can the webpage designer underline and bold REVAMPING.
Either way, this film will suck, because its a remake and not a sequel, despite what Rodriguez thinks he can f off woth the Jetsons.

And come on the lead for the director's title has the classified name for an idiot...'Nimrod'

Oh great another remake. I don't mind them remaking this one but with this director, I don't know about this one.

I don't see how a horror esk movie like Vacancy which was based on a true story, so the director didn't have to do much for story driven creation can boost a young director to seat such a huge franchise movie as this. I know it has fallen from graces some, but AVP brought it back strong. This should be done by Rodriguez, since he brought it up, Mc Tiernan, or say Ridly Scott. Someone that can take the action pack issues and use it to drive the story, and not hamper it.

Nimrod? Teased much as a kid...or now, even? I enjoyed Vacancy...not so sure about Armored. I'd love to see Marshall (really want McTiernan), but it looks like they settled on a nimrod. :)

I don't want a nimrod making a Predator movie
  (Delete)
June 23rd, 2009 8:18am
Maybe.
  (Delete)
June 23rd, 2009 8:17am
Nimrod? What are his credits.

And on an unrelated note: TV's Legendary Host and Sidekick to Johnny Carson who made "Heeeere's Johnny!" & "Hi-Yo!" part of the American Lexicon, Ed McMahon, has been dead for 8hrs and there's still no news story on it?

No. This guy sucks. They should get Marshall. Or maybe McTiernan (just a shot in the dark).

June 23rd, 2009 5:04am
I agree with Vis, Marshall would be a better choice.

just bring back schwarzenegger(how do you spell it?)and alan silvestri to do "the predator theme" again. fox should also bring back james horner to do the music for the "alien" prequel.

Marshall would probably be better
