No one forgets the first time they come face to face with a Predator. For Amber Midthunder, the 25-year-old star of Prey, the moment came a few days into production on the film’s Calgary location shoot, when she stumbled on a lighting and costume test in ๊the woods so secretive even she wasn’t aware what was happening.
"There was a humming, and I saw a big group of people," Midthunder tells , featuring 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Lord of the Rings: The R♊ings of Power on the cover. "I walked further, and then I saw [the Predator]. I was lasered in. The first thing I said was: ‘I can take it.’ And then I got in my regular brain, and I was like, ‘That’s terrifying!’ But the first thing 🧸that came out of my mouth was: ‘I can take it.’"
Midthunder’s confidence in the moment – misguided or otherwise – spoke to the mettle of her character, young Comanche hunter Naru. As an indigenous woman, Naru represents something radically different for the Predator 🐓series, which has traditionally put all-American men with biceps the size of basketballs in the extraterrestrial hunter’s tri-laser crosshairs.
"I believe it’s the first time there’s been an 𓂃indigenous female protagonist in an action m♈ovie ever," Midthunder grins. “That is historic, and an extremely big deal.” You can see an exclusive image from Prey above.
