Arnold Schwarzenegger Confirms 'Predator' Sequel in Development

During an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Arnold Schwarzenegger revealed that he is developing new sequels for Predator and Command, as well as a new Conan movie. However, the star made it clear that none of the projects will move forward until the scripts are up to par.

"Yes, absolutely. It's a lot. But I'm eager to see the scripts, because that's where the action is. What's not on paper isn't on stage. So, I'm just waiting for the scripts to be finalized so we can start filming these things," he stated.

Regarding Predator , the actor revealed that he spoke with director Dan Trachtenberg about officially bringing back the character Dutch, following his appearance in the animated film Predator: Killer of Killers. As for Commando, Schwarzenegger confirmed that a script exists, although its production is seen as the least likely of the three.

The King Conan project is not new, as the actor had been discussing the production for some time and was even preparing physically. In the interview, he reiterated the premise of the 40-year-old monarch who is the target of a rebellion. The film will be written and directed by Christopher McQuarrie for 20th Century Studios, with filming scheduled for 2027.

This move marks the star's attempt to return to big action films. His last feature film in theaters was Terminator: Dark Fate in 2019. His last major box office success was in 2003 with Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines. Recently, he filmed the Christmas comedy Christmas Rescue, which is scheduled to premiere directly on streaming on December 2.
