'Predators' Gets a Director

Word comes from Ain't It Cool News, that Robert Rodriguez has now picked a director for his 'Predators' movie. Harry (friend of Rodriguez) reports that the man chosen for the job is director Nimrod Antal, who has directed both Kontroll and Vacancy. When Rodriguez was asked for a quick summary of the story line, he had the following to say:

"I can't go too much into the story right now, because we're still writing. But it still involves a very intense group of people stranded on a Predator planet discovering unspeakable horrors.

One of the guys at Fox told me "No one is ever going to talk about AVP again after this film, I will stake my life on it."

I don't want to see him dead. Now that lives are at stake, it's no longer a mission.

Failure is not an option."

Is it just me or is this movie looking promising? I guess we'll have to keep our eyes peeled for the next few months and see what happens next.
