So, it looks like the ‘Alien’ franchise will live on to see another day. Spurred by strong word of mouth, Fede Alvarez’s “Alien: Romulus” is headed towards a $45M opening this weekend.

Alvarez, who directed 2016’s “Don’t Breathe,” is clearly not done with the franchise either. He’s already teasing a potential “Alien Vs. Predator” movie, but there’s a catch.

“Maybe it’s something I’ll have to co-direct with my buddy Dan,” Alvarez says. That friend being Dan Tratchenberg who directed the 2022 ‘Predator’ prequel “Prey” for Hulu and is already working on another movie in the franchise.

“Maybe we should do like Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez did with ‘Dusk Till Dawn’. I’ll direct a half, and he’ll direct another half.”

I've seen that movie, and it was terrible.

How about Alien vs. Batman, or Predator vs. Jackie Chan.

Or Judge Dredd vs either.
