The director explained: "We were writing the script for Killer of Killers while we were prevising stuff on Badlands, and then once on location in New Zealand, on the way to shoot Badlands, we would remote with everyone back here and watch footage thanks to Starlink."
Describing the process of making two films at once, Trachtenberg joked: "This all was like a game of hopscotch…That was dumb. I hope I don’t do it again."
The official synopsis for Killer of Killers reads: "The anthology story follows three of the fiercest warriors in human history: a Viking raider guiding her young son on a bloody quest for revenge; a ninja in feudal Japan who turns against his Samurai brother in a brutal battle for succession; and a WWII pilot who takes to the sky to investigate an otherworldly threat to the Allied cause.

"But while all these warriors are killers in their own right, they are merely prey for their new opponent — the ultimate killer of killers."

The film stars Elle Fanning and has been co-written by Trachtenberg and Patrick Aison.
Predator: Killer of Killers will premiere on Hulu in the US on June 6 and Disney+ internationally. Predator: Badlands is released in cinemas on November 7
