During an interview with SlashFilm, director Dan Trachtenberg mentioned the film's creative team struggled with what he called the "'Hunt For Red October' thing," where the characters speak Russian before transitioning into English. He said they never quite came up with a way to make that work, so instead, the film was shot in English and Comanche. "Both languages are spoken, but when you hear English, it's as if it's Comanche," he said. "But what Jhane is speaking to is on Hulu, there will be a Comanche dub of the movie, so you can watch the entire movie in Comanche with the original actors returning to perform their roles. [10] In an interview with Empire, Trachtenberg went on to say "There’s a lip-match (choosing words to match the actor’s mouth movements as closely as possible) that we do now. It won’t be like watching old kung fu movies.” [11] Trivia [ ]

Trachtenberg said they discussed whether they should start the film with characters speaking the Comanche language before switching to English for the benefit of the audience, similar to the Russian language in The Hunt for Red October (1990). They considered a similar approach at first but ultimately felt it did not work. The film was shot in English and later dubbed in Comanche, with the entire cast performing an alternate all-Comanche dub of the film. [29] The film is the only feature film to have a full Comanche language dub. [1] Both language versions, Comanche and English, are available on Hulu and Disney+.

Brad Curran of Screen Rant described the Comanche characters' clothing, village setting, and hunting lifestyle depicted in the film as historically accurate, along with the depiction of the French trappers as hostile towards the Comanche. [40] Curran added that the film makes traditional Comanche gender roles "central to its story", writing that, in Comanche culture, men took on more physical roles as hunters and warriors, while women served as caregivers who oversaw homes, children, and food preparation.

" New ‘Predator’ Movie Coming From ’10 Cloverfield Lane’ Director Dan Trachtenberg". Slashfilm.com. Retrieved on November 20, 2020. In December 2019, the film was initially under wraps, going by the name of Skulls. The film reportedly was to "follow a Comanche woman who goes against gender norms and traditions to become a warrior". It was to be directed by Trachtenberg and written by Aison. [12] Cast auditions were held in February 2020, before pre-production was shut down by the COVID-19 pandemic. [13] In November 2020, Skulls was revealed to be a codename for a fifth installment in the Predator franchise, with the same creative team working on the film. The early 18th century concept was a reference to the embroidered gun given to Mike Harrigan's character at the end of Predator 2, although it was not expected to correlate to the events of the prior installment. [14] Upon the announcement, Trachtenberg indicated that the original intention was to market the film with no reference to the Predators, something no longer possible with the confirmation of the film's place in the franchise. [8] Prey had been the first title Trachtenberg pitched, as "a mirror to the main franchise" while having the same double meanings as Predator had. The Comanche were chosen as the central tribe because Trachtenberg considered them "the most fierce warriors to walk this continent, arguably, and they were incredibly innovative."
