Some of the people involved with the making of “Prey” are very proud of the science-fiction action movie’s Native American representation.
Set 300 years ago in the northern Great Plains, “Prey” is a prequel to the first four entries in the “Predator” movie franchise. The effort from Disney-owned 20th Century Studios will make its debut this week on Hulu.
In it, we are treated to a strong young female warrior in the Comanche Nation, Naru (Amber Midthunder), raised — as the production notes say — “in the shadow of some of the most legendary hunters who roam the Great Plains.”
