This concept of the Predators manipulating DNA - which has also been teased in the trailer and synopsis - has been a long meter coming . InPredatorandPredator 2 , we had only seen the creatures put to work with mechanical and electrical technology;Predator 2revealed that they traveled all over the galax and collected trophy , but it was n’t until 2010 ’s moviePredatorsthat there was a mite of them experimenting with transmissible qualifying .
In Robert Rodriguez ’s original book forPredators , he had them hunting other alien for their DNA . This idea was dropped in the theatrical release , but one scene in the movie nevertheless opened the threshold : Nolan ( Lawrence Fishburne ) told Royce ( Adrien Brody ) that the Predators were different every time they return from a hunt . It appear as if they were experimenting on themselves as a way to improve their ability . Nolan never mentioned what he meant by this experimentation , but it was possible that the Predators were bet into using DNA from their victims to heighten their hunt skills .
It ’s possible that Black had assume note of this , and decided to expand on the deoxyribonucleic acid concept in his picture . But , if so , has he taken it further than Rodriguez antecedently thought ?

Theory: The Ultimate Predator Contains Dutch’s DNA
If this new Predator will contain the DNA from all of the specie ' old adversaries , that has to mean humans too . It ’s been repeatedly cite thatThe Predatoris within the persistence of the previous film , so there are at least two tumbles on Earth prior to this movie that prove humanity ’s worth .

John Squires fromBloodyDisgustinghas posited that the Predator hold Dutch ’s DNA , first on Twitter and , after the prescribed Predator account retweeted it , in a detailed while that used script escape suggest a human - Predator hybrid and the Ultimate Predator ’s Arnie - esque body .
What this would tot to the film beyond a cracking throwback to the original is unclear -Schwarzenegger is n’t inThe Predator(although was extend a role ) , so there ’s no direct connection between the lineament and the giant - but it ’s for certain fitting of the heightened style and idea of returning to preceding panic ’s that ’s been powering Shane Black ’s yield .
The looming question would be how the Predators were able to get Dutch ’s DNA if he defeated his Predator in the first film , although that would n’t be too unmanageable to prune given the range of the dealership . We know that the Predators have been to Earth multiple times , andPredatorsindicated they were able to do so stealthily to the breaker point of kidnapping humans . sire a deoxyribonucleic acid sampling from someone , even the man who outflank one of their own , is a much easy task .
Other movies could really even explicate why the Predators are doing this . InAlien Vs . Predator , the xenomorphs showcased their own form of natural DNA - tampering , with thePredaliena mixture of the two titular creatures . It ’s potential that witnessing this sparked something within the Predators , leading to them developing the Ultimate Predator . While the poorly receivedAvPhas been roundly ignore byRidley Scott’sAlienprequels , there is the suggestion it ’s still canyon on the Predator side of the franchise , with Lex ’s spear from the first film bruit to be one of the connections to preceding movies .
The Predator ’s connections to previous moving picture are peculiarly interesting as it ’s been reported many were add as part of thesubstantial reshoots , primarily to the third act of the film .

It must be stressed that this is all just a possibility , and a rather disturbed one at that ; it ’s a construction that essentially relies on affectionateness to the first film , rather than anything in the story Black ’s constructed . And , even if the Ultimate Predator is a human loanblend , there are many other possibilities when it comes to the DNA source . But ifThe Predatorwants to discover a way to bring in Arnie back without actually having the actor present , there are many worse selection .
