Titan Books will be publishing a novel next summer which will act as a prequel to the upcoming Predator movie by Shane Black! Titled The Predator: Hunters and Hunted, this prequel novel will be written by James A. Moore and will explain events which eventually lead into the film:
The official prequel novel leads into the summer blockbuster The Predator, Shane Black’s new movie set within the universe of the previous films. With a screenplay by Shane Black and Fred Dekker, the film stars Yvonne Strahovski, Boyd Holbrook, Olivia Munn, Alfie Allen, Thomas Jane, Sterling Brown, Keegan-Michael Key, Edward James Olmos, Jake Busey, and more. Author James A. Moore (Alien: Sea of Sorrows) will work closely with Christopher Golden, author for the official novelization. The prequel novel will introduce key concepts that then will explode onto the screen in the movie itself.
The prequel novel is set to hit shelves by June 5th, 2018.
In addition to the prequel novel, Christopher Golden will pen the film's official novelization for Titan as well. That novel will arrive by August 7th.
