Jake Busey has joined Shane Black's The Predator! Following in his father's footsteps, Jake will enter the Predator universe just like his father Gary Busy did in Predator 2!
In Predator 2, Gary Busey played the role of Agent Keyes, a government operative with knowledge of the Predator race and actively tried to capture one for study. He unfortunately met his demise when attempts to capture the elusive City Hunter fell through, leading to the deaths and dismemberment of his team.
It is unknown whether or not Jake will portray the son of Gary Busey's Agent Keyes or not in The Predator, but we wouldn't be surprised if he does. This would also lend credence to Black's comments about incorporating events from previous Predator films in the new installment.
As new details concerning Jake's character are revealed, we'll be sure to keep you posted!
