It was announced last year that 'Iron Man 3' director Shane Black would be the one to helm the rebooted 'Predator' film.

Developments on this project have moved forward and in a recent interview with Collider, producer John Davis spoke on what we can expect in terms of the reinvention.

"Shane shot a movie and he's doing a pilot now, but I've read a lot of his script and I think it's genius," he says. "I think it's genius and I think it's entertaining, and what it did is recreate a famous franchise in a different, interesting way; looking at it from a different light. He's just an amazing writer-director. He's got a way of looking at this that makes you excited again. I love this franchise. It was the first movie I ever did. I remember in being in the jungle with Arnold [Schwarzenegger] as a 28-year-old and going, 'This is a fun business!'...Shane's amazing. He's an amazing storyteller."

He goes on to speak on Black's co-writer for the film, Fred Dekker, and how they're hoping to tie in aspects to keep the continuity of the previous films.

"Shane's got a writing partner, Fred Dekker," Davis continues. "They've been doing it together and Fred's great. The two of them together, they've been in the business for a long time, but the writing is so fresh, the perspective is so fresh. I'm telling you you're going to get something you don't expect and you're going to say, 'This is the most entertaining way to reinvent a franchise.' I mean he's the guy who wrote 'Iron Man 3.'"

The 'Predator' reboot hasn't been given a release date.
