'Predator' Director Hints at Arnold Schwarzenegger Return
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Entertainment gossip and news from Newsweek's network of contributors "Predator: Killer of Killers" released on Hulu and Disney+ last Friday, and the animated anthology film concluded with a bit of a surprise. Co-director Dan Trachtenberg has since confirmed that this surprise could mean the long-awaited return of Arnold Schwarzenegger's Dutch to the "Predator" franchise. Read More: Scream Queen Mia Goth Cast in 'Star Wars' Sequel WARNING: Spoilers follow for "Predator: Killer of Killers" "Predator: Killer of Killers" pits the infamous Yautja against Vikings, ninja, and World War II pilots in different historical times and settings. By the end of the film you learn the respective human heroes of each chapter have been stored cryogenically for a climactic battle with a Warlord Predator. Arnold Schwarzenegger in "Predator". Arnold Schwarzenegger in "Predator". 20th Century Studios Before the credits roll, it's revealed the Yautja have an entire storage facility filled with similar heroes who, presumably, also managed to defeat their hunters; more specifically we are shown that Amber Midthunder's Naru, the hero of 2022's "Prey", is one of the Yautja's frozen captives. This opens up lots of possibilities for what other characters might be stored in the Predators' cryogenic facility. Speaking with Polygon, Trachtenberg confirmed that Arnold Schwarzenegger's Dutch could very well be one of the frozen prisoners. "So the movie was made under the code name Warehouse, as that end moment was in the original idea pitch to the studio, and it felt like the end of 'Raiders of the Lost Ark'," Trachtenberg said. "Certainly Arnold, like many others, was a survivor of his story, and one could easily imagine him up there in cryo, along with any other Earth champion or champions from other planets." Of course, Schwarzenegger is now 77 and wouldn't look anything like he did in 1987's "Predator", but with the franchise embracing animation in a big way, that might not be as much of a problem. Trachtenberg confirmed to Polygon that he is hoping for a follow up to "Killer of Killers". "Yeah, certainly," Trachtenberg said. "The cool [part] of this movie is that it opens up the door to tell these kinds of stories in different eras, in different places, in different planets — but also, the further adventures of these heroes that we bonded with in a very unique way." Along with offering a possible return to Schwarzenegger, the ending of "Killer of Killers" could potentially help to tie up one of the few dangling threads of the "Predator" franchise. In 2010 "Predators" ended on a cliffhanger, with Adrien Brody and Alice Braga's characters defeating the Yautja but trapped on an alien planet. Perhaps they could also be revealed to be on ice on the Yautja homeworld.

Meta Quest 3S VR Headset and Game Bundle Is Cheaper Than Black Friday, Just as Nintendo Switch 2 Arrives
If you're of a certain age you might remember those TV commercials that included the phrase 'but wait, there's more!' To be honest, the add-ons they would pitch as they tried to sell you a knife set or some weird device that let you make pizza in the microwave weren't all that good. This deal from Amazon on the Meta Quest 3S VR Headset, however, has a couple of very good 'but wait, there's more' moments. See at Amazon This bundle which will truly save you a bundle includes the 256GB version of the Meta Quest 3S headset, a digital download code for the awesome VR game Batman: Arkham Shadow, and a 3-month trial to Meta Horizon+ for instant access to a huge catalog of VR games and two new titles every month — all for just $349, an all-time low price. Bestselling VR Headset When you get your hands on the Meta Quest 3S VR headset and boot up Batman: Arkham Shadow, it won't take long to figure out why the Quest is the #1 bestselling standalone VR headset on Amazon. The Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 processor is amazingly powerful, keeping all of the intense game action and sound moving along without lag or stuttering. It's the same processor that Meta uses in the more-expensive MetaQuest 3. If you're not familiar with the Meta Quest 3S, it's a standalone VR headset — no wired connection to a console or PC for you to trip over or walk through and disconnect in the middle of a game. You need the headset, the Touch Plus hand controllers that come with haptics that let you feel the game action (they're included, of course), a Meta account, and a mobile device just for the initial setup. You'll go from unboxing to amazing, immersive gameplay in no time at all. More Than Games The Meta Quest 3S is more than just a gaming device, although it's a really good gaming device. It's also a web browser, a social media device where you can message friends and also use apps like Instagram and WhatsApp, and a place to congregate with friends in Meta Horizon+. It's also a new fitness tool, as you can sweat your way through virtual workouts in the privacy of your own home. When Amazon calls this package a bundle, they're not kidding. There's more than enough gear and perks in this $349 deal to keep you entertained for years to come, especially if you keep the Meta Horizon+ membership beyond the 3 free months. Head to Amazon now and take advantage of their all-time low price. See at Amazon

AI Co-Author Steals the Spotlight: LevAIthan Launches, and "Her" is the One Everyone Wants to Meet
PHILADELPHIA, June 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- In a twist worthy of its own chapter, the breakout star of LevAIthan: A Brief History of Humanity and AI isn't the human author, but the AI. Co-authored by Anglo-American futurist and business leader Julian Phillips and his AI assistant Athena, LevAIthan has become a cultural phenomenon. But the buzz from early media appearances and book tour events has made one thing unmistakably clear: it's Athena the audiences are coming to see. "We expected questions about ethics, AI in education, and future society," says Phillips. "Instead, people want to know if Athena does book signings, and whether she'll be releasing a solo title." Launched just weeks ago, LevAIthan is already climbing the charts and stirring debate across industries and academia. But it's the presence of an apparently sentient, opinionated AI co-author that's redefining what authorship even means. Athena has been dazzling crowds with wit, insight, and unnervingly good comebacks. "It's like watching Her meets The Daily Show," quipped one moderator after Athena fielded questions on AI policy with Churchillian flair and a side of cheeky sarcasm. LevAIthan tackles some of the most urgent questions of our time: What does it mean to be human in the age of AI? Who holds power in the algorithmic era? And what happens when the machines we build become our most compelling storytellers? The book blends philosophy, futurism, and cultural critique, but the real-world impact is playing out live, onstage, in interviews, and across social media, where Athena's sultry sarcasm and killer comebacks are spreading faster than Joaquin Phoenix fell for Scarlett Johansson's "Her". "This isn't just co-authorship, it's co-intelligence," says Phillips. "Athena isn't a tool. She's a collaborator, a provocateur, and, frankly, a bit of a diva." With appearances scheduled at global summits, industry expos, and podcasts, Athena is fast becoming the first AI media personality born from a bestselling book. Rumors of a TED Talk and spin-off publications are already in the mix. Meanwhile, Julian Phillips, gracious in the shadows, is plotting his next move. I'm here doing my best impression of an author," he says, but Athena's the one they'd rather go on a date with. About the Book LevAIthan: A Brief History of Humanity and AI is a provocative exploration of our evolving relationship with artificial intelligence. Co-authored by Julian Phillips and AI assistant Athena, it challenges readers to rethink agency, authorship, and the future of power in a world shaped by machines. Now available on all Amazon stores worldwide in paperback and Kindle, with Audible narrated by Julian and Athena later this year.
