The Predator from the sci-fi movie "Prey" will have a feature in common with Aliens. This was revealed in a recent interview by Dan Traktenberg, the director of the film.
We had two versions of the Predator mask. One that didn't have any mechanisms for depicting facial expressions, it was easier for Dane Deliego, (who played the Predator), it allowed him to move freely. And there was a second one that was much heavier because it had all the animatronic devices. But there was another element we added that, oddly enough, wasn't in the other Predator movies, and the idea was good. We supplemented the image with alien slime, such as we had seen in the Alien movies. That way the jaws and the whole face and everything just seemed much more violent and brutal to me," he commented.
The Predator performer himself had previously said that he didn't just feel like "a guy in a monkey suit." "They did a great job, you slip inside and you're no longer human, you're invincible, you're a trophy hunter from another planet, you kind of turn into him and the whole story, and Kevin Peter Hall (the late actor from the first two Predator films), following in his footsteps was an incredible experience for me," stated Diliego.
