Predator prequel Prey appears to create a problem regarding the Predator's power, but it could also end up being a good creative decision for the movie. The Prey trailer has been released for the upcoming Hulu movie and seems to bring the alien hunter back to his roots, stalking humans in the pursuit of the perfect kill.

The Prey trailer looks to try and bring the horror and brutality back to the ailing franchise, setting it 300 years in the past with Comanche warrior Naru (Amber Midthunder) attempting to prevent her people from becoming the Predator's prey.

After all, if professional highly trained marines, cops, and mercenaries with modern weapons struggled to go toe-to-toe with a Yautja, what chance would
