Jesse Ventura, who played Blain Cooper in the original Predator film, took to social media to share his thoughts on Hulu’s prequel of the franchise, praising star Amber Midthunder and director Dan Trachtenberg.
“@AmberMidthunder, you definitely ain’t got time to bleed,” Ventura wrote, adding, “Welcome to the Predator family.” He continued, “@DannyTRS, Thank you for making a such a thoughtful, creative, and wonderful film.”
Midthunder replied to Ventura, saying she didn’t know how to thank him, and Trachtenberg shared that he was “on the floor. Thank you sir! Thanks for watching and so glad you appreciated what we did!!”
Prey serves as an origin story of the Predator in the world of the Comanche Nation 300 years ago. Naru (Midthunder) is a skilled female warrior, who fights to protect her tribe against one of the first highly evolved Predators to land on Earth.
The film also stars Dakota Beavers, Dane Diliegro, Stormee Kipp, Michelle Thrush, Julian Black Antelope, Stefany Mathia, Bennett Taylor, Mike Paterson and Nelson Leis.
Prey is now streaming on Hulu.
