While this film languished in "development hell" for years, 20th Century Fox considered producing a fifth film in the "Alien" franchise instead. James Cameron, who wrote and directed Aliens - Scontro finale (1986), had written a script and even approached Sigourney Weaver to star and Ridley Scott to direct, both of whom expressed interest. When the studio decided to use the Alien and Predator crossover story instead, Cameron, Weaver, and Scott all distanced themselves from the project, and later declared they would never work on either franchise again. Several years later, Ridley Scott ended up reworking his pitch into his Alien prequel Prometheus (2012).
