James Cameron Almost Directed “Prometheus
Before Prometheus became anything more than a basic concept for an Alien prequel film, James Cameron was approached in an effort to gauge his interest on directing such a film. However, this was also around the time that the first Alien Vs. Predator film was due to enter production. Cameron was also asked if he’d be interested in directing the latter film, but turning it down due to believing such a film being made would destroy any credibility the Xenomorph aliens had left as terrifying entities.
