Another 80s action staple is on track to be rebooted.
IESB is reporting that director Robert Rodriguez has announced plans to reboot the Arnold Schwarzenegger action film,
Predator.
The director made the announcement at his Troublemaker Studios, where Texas politicians signed a reform bill to the state's film incentive program. Here's what the director said at the press conference.
"I'm going to be able to shoot my upcoming
Machete here, a sci-fi action film called
Nervewrackers, a re-boot of the
Predator series called Predators, and a couple of smaller movies called
Sin City 2 and
The Jetsons."
The site also confirmed that Rodriguez was indeed directing and producing the
Predators remake, and it will be his own take on the original concept.
We'll be sure to keep you posted on any news surrounding this remake.

Actually, I have seen many of Rodreguez's movies. He's really a hit-and-miss director to me. What I meant by my statement was reference to everyone else opinions of him up until my comment. All I'm saying is, the Predator movies are one of my favorite franchises in the world. So I will give him a chance... and that's a chance that he'd better not f*** up.
predator 2 was friggin' great, but for completely different reasons from the first. i mean c'mon, we had the busey, the paxton and the glover all during their primes, that movie was great.
FU Rodriguez
he's always been hit or miss in my opinion.
his movies are always super damn cheesy and hard to take seriously, and this includes 'sin city' in my opinion.
here's to hoping he can manage to not ruin one of the greatest sci-fi monster movies of all time.
