Genna – About the Death Planet in Predator: Badlands

Genna – About the Death Planet in Predator: Badlands Article
Last Updated: October 27, 2025

Genna is the official name for the Death Planet featured in Dan Trachtenberg's Predator: Badlands (2025) movie. It is a hostile alien world surrounded by orbital debris and is home to some of the most deadly species of alien lifeforms in the known universe. In Badlands, Dek – the film's protagonist Yautja finds himself crash-landing on Genna after his ship is struck by the orbiting debris field. Once on Genna, Dek comes into contact with a number of hostile alien creatures and flora.

Creatures on Genna

The planet Genna hosts a variety of alien organisms, including the monstrous Kalisk – an unkillable beast. Other creatures include a carnivorous trees and other vegetation, winged Dinosaur-like creatures, giant worms and massive, multi-limbed monsters which swing from trees. Everything on Genna is designed to kill.

Weyland-Yutani's Interest

The Weyland-Yutani Corporation have a unique interest on Genna and have sent a detachment of advanced Synthetics on a mission to capture and retrieve the Kalisk for research.

Are there Xenomorphs on Genna?

While Predator: Badlands does connect to the Alien universe and officially share the same timeline, Dan Trachtenberg confirmed there are no Xenomorphs in Badlands – however that's not to say Xenomorphs aren't on Genna. Rumors have suggested a post-credit scene features a quick teaser of a Xenomorph fighting a Predator, but those claims remain unsubstantiated.

As far as we know for now, there are no Xenomorphs on Genna.

As new details about Genna are revealed, this post will be updated!
