Prey Star Amber Midthunder Reveals Discussion For Sequel Is Ongoing
Amber Midthunder spoke with Variety during the red carpet of the Bafta Tea Party and revealed that she is down for a Prey sequel:
“I don’t have a date for you. This is not an announcement, but I’m not saying it is not. We talk all the time about a lot of things and that’s probably one. I’m ready. I loved that experience. I love that movie. And I would be happy to, you know, see where else we can take it.”
Dan Trachtenberg’s Prey film climbed to the charts and remained at the number one spot for weeks. It also became the most-watched movie in Latin America.

The Prey star commented on the success of the movie:
“Just having reached so many different groups and so many different audiences, and types of people and communities that could enjoy our movie. Whether was like the classic predator fans, or was indigenous communities or was… I have so many people telling me that they saw it and enjoyed it.”
With so many projects laid down for Midthunder, she will definitely bring more unique and exceptional characters to life.

What Happened In The Predator Prequel Movie?
The Predator prequel follows Naru (Midthunder) who seems like an outcast from her tribe due to her refusal to participate in the assigned roles of her culture. Her skills and wits propelled her to become the heroine of the story as she goes toe-to-toe with a Predator alien.
In one of her previous interviews with EW, Midthunder said, “I’m sure that nobody would make something again if it wasn’t amazing,” when asked about the rumored sequel. She also noted that whatever the decision of the studio will be the right choice.
Prey is now streaming via Hulu.
