Adrien Brody signs up for Predators

Adrien Brody is the latest actor to be signed up for Robert Rodriguez's Predators remake. In my mind, that makes the film half sci-fi horror and half Holocaust allegory with Danny Trejo as a kick-ass Mexican Nazi. I don't think that's right though.
So it's a surprise that the Oscar-winning Halle Berry kisser is lending his acting chops to this slick action reboot, especially considering his last big cinema outing, Peter Jackson's King Kong, was, by all accounts, not a fun time for him.
In fact, the anaemic Brody said of filming the blockbuster "I'm running around in front of a green screen screaming, 'Where's the monkey? Where's the monkey?'". Which is actually the name of a bedtime game I like to play with my girlfriend.
Still, there has been much speculation surrounding exactly what kind of role Brody will play in a film which features hardened killers, alien falcons and a 'Black Super Predator'.
As much as I'd like to think he'll be the falconer, word is out that he will in fact play chief hardened killer - leader of the men brought to the Predator's home planet for some hunting.
What's the bet that this will involve lots of running around in front of a green screen screaming 'Where's the alien? Where's the alien?'
And if he needs any advice about how to act around a predator, he just has to cast his mind back to The Pianist, when he was directed by Roman Polanski. Ah thank you.
