Before 20th Century Fox greenlit Robert Rodriguez' Predators for 2010, Splice director Vincenzo Natali had pitched a different Predator movie at Fox, but unfortunately it never made its way into production. Recently however, the director shared some of his pitch artwork as well as a storyboard by Dan Milligan and a Predator concept by Amro Attia. The film would have featured a sleaker-looking Predator and an epic battle between a man with a sword and the Predator.
These concepts are not to be confused with the upcoming Predator sequel which is currently in development, being directed by Shane Black.
