What Could Have Been: Predator

from Breakdowns & Blockbusters Hosted by Breakdowns & Blockbusters

Before Predator became a sci-fi action classic, the alien was almost a completely different creature. This video goes behind the scenes to break down the original Jean-Claude Van Damme suit and how a disastrous early design nearly derailed the Arnold Schwarzenegger movie. From the film’s original title Hunter to Stan Winston’s last-minute redesign, this is the untold story of how Predator almost went very wrong. ⏱️TIMESTAMPS⏱️ 0:00 Intro0:25 Hunter3:26 The Original Predator Suit6:16 Stan Winston's Redesign7:06 The Original Ending7:42 Filming in the Jungle 🔴 Subscribe for more videos just like this: https://shorturl.at/atCD9 #predator Breakdowns & Blockbusters is represented by Digital Fox Talent.
