I know you're itching for more info on that new Predators film hitting theaters this summer, right? Robert Rodriguez (Sin City) is producing, and the film stars a juicy eclectic cast full of people like Adrien Brody, Topher Grace, Danny Trejo and Alice Braga.
Speaking to ComingSoon about why they decided to cast the thin Adrien Brody in what we assume is the Arnold Schwarzenegger-type role, director Nimrod Antal said, "I think when we cast Adrian, there were a lot of people going, 'What?' but at the same time, if we cast a Vin Diesel in that role or if we cast anyone who is Arnold-esque, we would have been attacked for doing that. So we decided early on to go in a very different direction as far as the casting process, but it turned out fantastic. He plays a mercenary in the film and if you look at the guys in Iraq and Afghanistan today, they're not 'yolked-out' Schwarzenegger-looking guys. They're all very wiry and thin guys, and I think it's going to play well."
Predators arrives in theaters on July 7th, positioning it as one of next summer's big blockbusters. But will it erase the sour taste that both Alien vs. Predator movies left in our mouths? Guess we'll have to see…
