Prey is available to watch on the streaming service Hulu.
Prey is an American science fiction action film released in 2022 as part of the Predator franchise.

The film’s cast includes Amber Midthunder, Dakota Weavers, Dane DiLiegro, Michelle Thrush, Storme Kripp, Julian Black Antelope, and Bennet Taylor.
The film's development began during the production of The Predator (2018) when Trachtenberg and Aison approached producer John Davis with a concept that they had been working on since 2016. The film's title was revealed to be the codename for the franchise's fifth installment in late 2020.
What is Prey about?

Is Prey a sequel or a prequel?
Prey is the fifth installment in the Predator franchise and is a prequel to the first four films, including the 1987 hit film Predator starring Arnold Schwarzenegger. The film is set almost 300 years before the events of the 1987 film. Given the span between the two films, one of the foremost production duties was to ensure that the “ Prey” version of the humanoid appeared to be a rather less developed version of the Predator than the one Arnold and his team encountered.
While there aren’t many overt references to the other films in the plot, there are scenes of lines and dialogues that purposefully recall the previous moments in the franchise.
