NECA is releasing a 7″ action figure of the Feral Predator from last year’s Prey in September, a month after the film’s 1 year anniversary
August 5th will mark the one year anniversary of the Hulu release of the latest film in the Predator franchise, Prey (you can see what other JoBlo readers had to say about the movie at THIS LINK, or read our own Lance Vlcek’s 7/10 review HERE) – and to celebrate, NECA will be releasing a 7″ action figure of the film’s “Feral Predator”! This action figure will be available in September, and you can take a look at an image of it at the bottom of this article.
Directed by Dan Trachtenberg (10 Cloverfield Lane) from a screenplay by Patrick Aison (Jack Ryan), Prey has the following synopsis: Set in the Comanche Nation 300 years ago, Prey is the story of a young woman, Naru, a fierce and highly skilled warrior. She has been raised in the shadow of some of the most legendary hunters who roam the Great Plains, so when danger threatens her camp, she sets out to protect her people. The prey she stalks, and ultimately confronts, turns out to be a highly evolved alien predator with a technically advanced arsenal, resulting in a vicious and terrifying showdown between the two adversaries.
Prey is available on Hulu entirely in Comanche as a language option, or with Comanche subtitles, which is the first time a feature-length movie on a direct-to-consumer streaming platform has been available in the Comanche language in its entirety.
John Davis produced Prey with Marty Ewing and Jhane Myers, who is a Native Comanche. Lawrence Gordon, Ben Rosenblatt, James E. Thomas, John C. Thomas, and Marc Toberoff served as executive producers.
The film stars Amber Midthunder (Roswell, New Mexico), Dakota Beavers (of the band WesternBoy), Stormee Kipp (Sooyii), Michelle Thrush (The Journey Home), Julian Black Antelope (Tribal), Cody Big Tobacco (The Revenant), Skye Pelletier (Burden of Truth), Tymon Carter (The Emigrants), and Harlan Blayne Kytwayhat (Shoresy), with Dane DiLiegro (American Horror Stories), a 6’9″ former basketball player who has experience working in creature suits, as the Predator.
The Predator designs always differ a bit from movie to movie, but the Feral Predator looks very different from its predecessors. So it’s good to see that it’s getting its own action figure.
