One of the reasons why producer Joel Silver hired screenwriter Channing Gibson to write the script for Lethal Weapon 4 is because he liked the work Gibson did on re-writes of the 1993 spec script by other screenwriter Steven Maeda, titled Sandblast. Around 1995 and 1996 it was going to be made into an action thriller (described as both Die Hard and Cliffhanger in sandstorm) starring Wesley Snipes as army specialist and mine expert who has to work with team of US commandos and find several lost nuclear warheads in Iraq desert wasteland during huge sandstorm, before team of traitorous Green Berets finds them first, and Jean Claude Van Damme would play the main villain and leader of Green Berets, but that entire project got cancelled.
