Predator: Badlands marks the return of the legendary sci-fi action franchise with a bold new chapter led by Elle Fanning. Set to expand the Predator universe, the film blends brutal action with a fresh storyline that has already sparked strong interest among fans. As anticipation builds, viewers are eager to know when the movie will arrive on streaming platforms and where they can watch it.



Predator: Badlands is set to make its streaming debut via premium video-on-demand (PVOD) starting Tuesday, January 6, 2026. From that date, fans will be able to purchase the sci-fi action film on major digital platforms including Apple TV, Fandango at Home, Prime Video, and YouTube Movies & TV for $29.99.

Predator: Badlands shifts the focus of the franchise to a young Predator named Dek, a disgraced Yautja who becomes stranded on a harsh and dangerous alien world. Alone and cut off from his clan, Dek is forced to hunt lethal creatures in the unforgiving Badlands to survive and reclaim his honor. His journey takes an unexpected turn when he teams up with Thia, a damaged android connected to the Weyland-Yutani Corporation, leading to a tense alliance that explores survival, loyalty, and Predator culture amid relentless action.



Predator: Badlands features Elle Fanning as Thia, a malfunctioning android tied to the Weyland-Yutani Corporation, who forms an unlikely partnership on a hostile planet. Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi stars as Dek, a young Predator outcast striving to prove his worth, alongside Reuben de Jong as his father and clan leader Njohrr, and Mike Homik as Kwei, Dek’s older brother.
