Predator 3. Arnold Schwarzenegger. Yes. (Maybe).
You know what there’s not enough of? Films about really old men titting around in the woods with an invisible alien that looks like Whoopi Goldberg.
If you happen to agree with us then you’re in for a treat - movie producer John Davis has decided to revive the Predator franchise. Not just that, but he wants to bring back the biggest star of any of the Predator movies at the same time. That’s right - Gary Busey.
No, wait, not Gary Busey. Arnold Schwarzenegger. John Davis wants to make Predator 3, and he wants Arnold Schwarzenegger to star in it. Predator 3 is far from official, mind you, because nobody knows what Arnold Schwarzenegger’s long-term political goals are. Also, we assume it’ll probably be quite hard to find anyone clever enough to write a film where the universe’s most advanced game hunters have trouble outwitting a rich old bloke with a funny accent.
It’s now completely fine for older actors to return to their action movie roots. Everyone’s doing it - Bruce Willis made Die Hard 4, Harrison Ford made Indiana Jones And The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull and Sylvester Stallone’s entire retirement plan seems to involve running through the jungle and firing a machine gun into the air until his knees eventually give out.
But there’s one action star who hasn’t chosen to do that - Arnold Schwarzenegger. Rather than, say, take the easy option and make Conan The Incontinent, Arnold Schwarzenegger has decided to concentrate on his job as Governor or California - a task that involves nothing more than tutting about the paparazzi and making horribly smug tourism adverts sometimes.
But as thrilling as recommending state legislation is, there has to be a part of Arnold Schwarzenegger that misses the old days. The days where all he had to do was frown and explode people in an impenetrable European accent and people would give him a million dollars.
That’s what producer John Davis is hoping, anyway. He’s got it in his head to make Predator 3 and, more than anything else, he wants Arnold Schwarzenegger to be in it. Davis told Collider:
“Well, the Governor has mentioned to me that when he ceases to be Governor, if he doesn’t run for the Senate and all of that stuff, he’d like to do a movie or two again. And I don’t know, maybe we could restart the Predator franchise… We’d have to come up with a really good script and a really great angle on it.”
What? No you wouldn’t. You wouldn’t need a great script for Predator 3 at all. We’ve seen Predator 2, Alien Vs Predator and Alien Vs Predator: Requiem, so we’re pretty sure that if you got a Romanian badger with learning difficulties do draw a picture of an explosion in wax crayon on a sheet of used toilet paper, it’d still probably qualify as the best Predator script that’s been written for 20 years.
Let’s be honest, though. Just because Arnold Schwarzenegger could make Predator 3, it doesn’t mean that he should. By the time he finishes his next term as Governor he’ll be 64 years old, and we just can’t see how that could make Predator 3 any good. We’ve looked at this from all angles, and here are the only ways that Predator 3 with Arnold Schwarzenegger could possibly work.
1 - The Predator has given up hunting for a life of conning the elderly out of their savings by fraudulently posing as a wall insulation salesman… but he picked the wrong vulnerable old man in Arnold Schwarzenegger.
2 - Arnold Schwarzenegger and the Predator decide their fate by having a Sudoku-off.
3 - Rather than coat himself in mud, Arnold Schwarzenegger accidentally defeats the Predator’s heat-vision by popping his colostomy bag on a hot radiator, skidding about in the mess until he’s covered in it and lying there for three days in the cold waiting for one of his children to come and help him up again.
4 - Not making Predator 3 with Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Um. I’m pretty sure Ahhnold went back to his roots with Terminator 3. Could be wrong?
You SON of a bitch!
IM NOT A SON OF A BITCH
ahhnold is gettin’ old… lol
he is doing great where he is…
no offense.
That is the funniest post. I was LMAO, great writing. Look forward to seeing more since hollywood can’t come up with anything new or fresh. I guess the old people need the money for their hooker, drugs and medical plans.
Yak, there already was a terminator 3. How could anyone forget that crappy ending?
I would think that even in his “advanced” age Arnold could still whip himself into shape, even if it’s strictly a cameo appearance. I mean how about Dutch getting hired to lead an expedition into another hot jungle and lt the kiddies tackle the preditor.
Same for a new Terminator movie, I mean how ’bout he plays the guy the original Terminator was based on? A scientist that got captured and was forced to flesh up the terminators to “finally” beat the humans. Maybe be offed y a terminator version of himself.
that article was painfully unfunny
Technically this should be considered the second one. As any copies of the actual second one should be burned and forgotten.
Is it true that Arnold Schwarzennegar is old?! That’s what I read one time somewhere!!!
you should kill the asshole that write this article…
man, you talk horrible, really.
predator is a great franchise and bring back the hunter against their 1st enemy would be tremendous…
learn more about movies and then talk…
arnold is the man…
but i’m not sure he’d want to do this…
i’ve heard so many proposed movies that he is supposed to do: true lies 2, predator 3 (with danny glover?), inglorious bastards (thats not happening), new terminator (probably won’t even have a cameo in the new one)…i’ve even heard twins 2 (ie: triplets)
i would love to see him come back and do a couple of movies, but i don’t think he will…i mean, stallone is like 60 and rambo was fucking awesome…schwarzenegger can do a lot better, just give him a few months to get back in shape
[...] Unlikely, ‘Predator’ More Possible Arnold Schwarzenegger returning for Predator 3? - The Ampersand Predator 3. Arnold Schwarzenegger. Yes. (Maybe). | Hecklerspray Moviehole. Schwarzenegger back for Predator 3 ? . __________________ [...]
I think he could easily do it if he wants to, the guy is no fool, not a bad actor either (no Anthony Hopkins but he is OK). The problems with Predators 2 and all Alien films after Aliens including AVP 1 and 2 was that the story sucked. But it did come up with some good concepts and themes.
1) Predators have a strict honour code.
2) Predators admire fighting prowess.
3) Humans are no match for either species but can kill or wound them.
4) Both Humans and Predators hate Aliens and can work together, if they are forced into it.
5) The Predator Medical kit - brilliant.
6) The Weyland-Yutani Corporation.
7) The Predators have been coming here for a very long time and do leave stuff behind - intentionally or otherwise. We have a shoulder cannon now.
8)Shadowy/Black government agencies are lured by this technology and will take stupid risks to acquire it.
If he is getting a bit old to ‘kick ass’ make him an advisor which would fit in with ‘I don’t do this sort of work’ as dramatic irony.
Unfortunately as our planet has made almost no progress in SPACE TRAVEL since Predator I (too busy worrying about ‘man made’ global warming and dreaming up every ’solution’ apart from using one that we know works - Nuclear), then if Arnie is in it it’s got to be earth bound. Which also sucks on many levels.
Fred Upwith Sriptwriters,
There is a substantial background and history about all 3 species, agencies and their dealings with each other. Theres only about 20 books out there about Aliens / Predator and marines. Try reading one instead of relying on Movies
woooooooah lets not write off the OAP that is arnie just yet, we have all seen rocky balboa and ramnbo IV have we not? and in my personal opinion i thought rambo IV was like some sort of vietnam version of saw! was gruesome! and lacked any evidence of CGI, which is a good thing! so bring back predator 3, with arnie and leave out all CGI and you’re onto a winner!
not arny maybe someone like the dwayne ‘the rock’ jhonson!!! or maybe yeah arny but he gets killed in like the first five minutes!! That could work!!
ALL OUT ATTACK BY PREDITORS?

Ok lets be honest folks, nobody watches Action movies for the drama, no one cares about the storyline, action movies r about Violence and plenty of it. To say an action movie is bad or should not be made based of a bad storyline is absurd! We go see Schwarzenegger and Stallone movies for action and violence not storylines, go watch Shawshank Redemtion and its like if thats what toots your horn.
Predators r fictional creatures in a fictional future, Hello! Not real, so how can any story based on make believe beings in a possible future be considered Emmy material, StarWars had humans against humans, believable if far-fetched.
Make another predator and Terminator movie, put Arnold in a starring role, and watch as those movies make hundreds of millions of dollars from people like me who just want a real violent action movie and Schwarzenegger is the best at that, makeup will take care of the wrinkles and special effects the physical action problems that arise. The movie will be a bigger success with Arnie in the main role and you all know it!
Quit your whinning and complaining, there is a reason none of you are movie producers of Blockbusters, you dont recognise greatness even when its standing infront of you. I bet even after all the nay saying, each of you will be in line on opening night to watch those movies.
Watch them for what they are, Action Movies,
Enjoy them for what they are, Action Movies.
Judge them for what they are, Attion Movies
Duh!
i agree that Terminator 3 was gri8 but bad ending..
Arlond is the one who can make it for PREDATOR 3 and also
new Terminator 5 or maby True Lies 2 .. but CONAN ?? no pleaz no .. i don think he can do it again..its so far dude..
good luck Arni and hope u just like u say..” i’ll be back”
wow, whoever wrote this is a real douche bag, critic wannabe. shut the fuck up and go write about harry potter or some gay ass shit like that.
I THINK WILL SMITH SHOULD DO PREDATOR 3. A BLOCKBUSTER for sure!!!!
100 million the first weekend I promise. If John Davis is smart. He would choose a script that leads to the next avp movie.
I can envision “The Rock” (Dewayne Johnson) assuming the role.
arnie is great! he can defo the film. he looked and was good in T3, it was the film director that made the whole film rubbish!
I don’t trust Hollywood to make a good third Predator film. Look at what they did with Terminator 3 and both the Alien vs Predators. All three of those movies were utter trash that created a massive blemish on the franchises involved.
It would take a seriously talented writer and a director who isn’t afraid to stand up against the studios to make Predator 3 work.
I loved the latest Rambo so I want to see a new Predator film done in that style written and directed by Sly Stallone because then it would be serious and not a stupid spoof which T3 basically was… Sly and Arnie really should finally work together they are both the masters of the action film and together I know they’d get it right the character of Dutch would be a most welcome return they could even give him his own film like Rambo afterwards assuming he lives through Predator 3 that is.
Fuck all of u. They should make a predator 3. Predator rulez, its the best.im the predator
hahaha, I’ve never laughed this muched in my life!
I have to say that Stuart Heritage has no idea what is he talking about. You are taking this personally I think. If you don’t like the movie, which is obvious, don’t write garbage about it like you do about most of the things.
hi…. well i’ve read all the comments’ and i gatta say some of theme are not too bad,but hear this how about ” the mask from the predator that is left behind after dutch is picked up, a differnt predator revial’s himself and check the data in the mask to see what all happen?? then we see the entire hunt on all dutch commrades get killed,and so forth. up untill we see the final picture of dutch standing upside the tree, and then we hear something faint coming out of the older predator saying something like “my son will be revenged” after the predator gets up afew more come out of no where. speed up time abit we see old dutch in a millitary camp, stearing at many stars above him,but suddenly a black suit comes in and tells the report of a simulair incident happing in a small village. he say he is not intersted.. untill they mentioned that his son was just sent there for futher investgation of the strage sightings of ghostly pepole being hiding in the bush. dutch slames the black suit man in the table and tells him” i’ve warned you basterds to leave my family out of this, another voice come from the shadows behind dutch..” your supposed to be died remember.. no one know’s your alive”. dutch lets go of the man and says ” i;m only going there for my son nothing more;nothing less…………………………………………………………………………………………
ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER - The one and only, guys whats wrong with you, Age doesn’t matter Arnie is great actor and I believe he has more to show, and yes this guy The Rock …when you compare him to Arnold in the first Predator he looks like malnourished hedgehog for real!
Predator 2 was awesome!
i have a great idea for this movie.
they call Arnold and ask him to lead a squad to attack the Predators home planet all i got so far.(takes place after AVPR)
Arnie should man up and get on the case for a third Predator movie. Id go and see it anyways. You are one ugly motherf****er!! Stick around!!
are you a FUCKING retard? Every movie needs a good script?
and making predator 3 without Arnold is just as stupid as making a Rambo movie without Rambo?
And stop trying to be funny at Every FUCKING opportunity YOU GET!
“if you got a Romanian badger with learning difficulties do draw a picture of an explosion in wax crayon on a sheet of used toilet paper, it’d still probably qualify as the best Predator script that’s been written for 20 years.”
OHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO shut up man, why the fuck are you writing about a Predator film when you have no idea what you’re talking about.
Wow Terminator 2 had SUCH A TERRIBLE SCRIPTED I MEAN ARNOLD IN A MOVIE WITH A GOOD SCRIPTED HEHE IMMPPPOOOSSSEEBBLLLEEE Fuck you dickhead
Arnold cannot appear in another Predator movie under the same alias as once before. If you watch the second Predator movie, Busey’s character mentions that he dies a few weeks after the first encounter with the Predator in the jungle. It would just not make sense to bring him back into another Predator franchise.
Erik makes a good point, there isn’t even a point making a second predator movie unless it happens a couple weeks after the first. I used to be a proponent of making sequels to the alien, and the predator movies, but now I realize that was a mistake. I was also a proponent of making the AvP movies, but now I think we opened pandora’s box. Just don’t make a P3, there’s no premise for it.
arnold is AWESOME. peace
This article looks full of misplaced critics, it’s so easy to criticise! It’s just another loser’s reaction to what could make us dive into the good old sensation of Dutch VS Predator. Even now when I watch predator I still have a shivering down my spine. Not many movies can make you feel this way, a 3rd movie would make a lot of people happy.
I don’t usually write comments, but this guy should find stuff that deserve to be criticised to write about, not masterpieces like Predator.
See ya, enjoy Terminator Salvation!
We need a 3 predator with arnie. GET TO THE CHOPPA!
Stuart, you need a girl
Arnold is the worst idea any of you could come up with. The Predator movies have move forward in time and so should the actor. I didn’t watch Rocky’s last movie because I thought bringing him back was just stupid. I did watch Indiana Jone’s movie, but I was waiting for him to have a heart attack. Old action hero are old people acting young. I am tired of old ass producers,directors,and actors trying to act young. It’s like an old sport figure coming out of retirement and can’t play anymore. Now, if you want a good idea. Space Marines fighting Predators is a good idea. Young marines.
I rather it be someone old like Arnold then one of these new actors… like John Cena.
i think it’s great that arnold is coming back because i have watched so many movies i am an expert on films so it’s gonna be brilliant if he does it will be a big hit and people will be talking about it every were
