LONDON, June 29: Actor Jake Busey has confirmed that he will play the son of his father’s character in “The Predator”.
The 46-year-old actor has established a link between the upcoming science fiction film and at least one of its predecessors, 1990’s “Predator 2”, as Jake is set to star as the son of Peter Keyes – played by his father Gary Busey – in the movie, reported Contactmusic.
“Shane Black called me and he said ‘Hey, you wanna do this movie? We don’t have money for you but it’ll be a fun thing to come play and be your father’s son,'” he said.
“And so as much as I have followed in my Dad’s footsteps career-wise, this is like really following in his footsteps by playing a character who is the son of the character he played. And I don’t think there would be any other forum where I would do that. I think this is the one thing.”
“The Predator” is slated for release in August 2018. (PTI)
