Fox’s ‘Predators’ Gets Surprise Star

Robert Rodriguez is behind “Predators,” the “Predator” reboot, and he just signed a surprising name.

Actor Adrian Brody has signed on to the cast, already consisting of Alice Braga, Danny Trejo, Walt Goggins, and Mahershalalhashbaz Ali.

Nimrod Antal is directing the film that will star Brody as a heroic mercenary that will battle alien hunters. The filming will take place in Hawaii and at Troublemaker Studios in Austin, Texas.

20th Century Fox is behind the franchise reboot. They are set to release the first film on July 9, 2010.

Adrian Brody is perhaps best known for starring in Roman Polanski’s “The Pianist,” for which he won an Oscar. This role could turn out to be a reinvention for the star. If played right, maybe he can do just like Arnold Schwarzenegger did and become the governor of California. I dunno. Just a theory.
