After Predator became a blockbuster, the Schwarzenegger-led flick was turned into a franchise. The directors for its latest sequel, Prey recently addressed prospects of his and Danny Glover’s return in an interview with Variety. Dan Trachtenberg said that since both actors are “still around” it would “be awesome” to have them in a Prey sequel.

Although Schwarzenegger was also approached for another sequel from the franchise previously, he refused the film. Addressing this, Trachtenberg remarked that “there’s still time” for Terminator actor and Glover to make a comeback.
