Referenced only in comic books up until this point, Shane Black will finally introduce cinema goers to Female Predators in The Predator! According to a panel hosted by CBR, it appears the Fugitive Predator is in fact female:
One of the clips screened featured Olivia Munn’s character, Dr. Casey Bracket, about to be attacked by a female Predator in sleek, technical armor, when a larger Predator attacks another one of the aliens, distracting the female Predator. The larger predator is a “Mega Predator,” the result of genetic tampering within the alien society.
