A version of Predator: Killer of Killers with an extended ending featuring Arnold Schwarzenegger’s character Dutch and Danny Glover’s character Mike Harrigan will broadcast tonight.
Predator: Killer of Killers is an animated Predator movie that ends with a tantalizing look at how the Yautja store people who survive a Predator hunt. This extended ending, due to be broadcast tonight, July 25 at 7pm PT on Hulu, sees Arnie’s Dutch from the original Predator movie and Danny Glover’s Mike Harrigan from Predator 2 captured and frozen by the Yautja.
Director Dan Trachtenberg revealed the news during a panel at San Diego Comic-Con 2025, where he also confirmed Arnold Schwarzenegger had given him his blessing to tell new stories with the Dutch character. Fans had already expressed hope that they might see Dutch return, and it looks like this may happen in a follow-up to Killer of Killers.
Dan Trachtenberg has set up new Predator lore that sees the Yautja kidnap beings who survive a hunt and store them in stasis for later use. This is what has happened to Dutch, Harrigan, and Amber Midthunder’s Naru from Prey, all of whom we will presumably see in action again.
There’s no suggestion the 77-year-old Arnold Schwarzenegger will play Dutch again in live action, but it will be interesting to see if the actor lends his voice to the character for an animation.
Meanwhile, Trachtenberg once again teased the possibility of a new AVP movie, even as fans speculate that’s exactly what Predator: Badlands sets up. And we’ve also got news on the inspiration for Badlands, which comes from a perhaps surprising source.
