Friday at San Diego Comic-Con offered fans a rare opportunity to hear from two of the people primarily responsible for major franchises, in the same place, on the same day. And that’s exactly what happened in both the Alien: Earth and Predator: Badlands panels, which both took place in Hall H.

It's been over 20 years since the Xenomorph fought the Yautja in "Alien vs. Predator." Now, it looks like Disney could be setting the stage for a rematch.

Badlands is mostly revealed in the latest action-packed trailer, but an increasingly popular theory indicates that the movie could actually be a stealth reboot of the Alien vs. Predator franchise cross-over.
