Shane Black thinks there's hope for another Alien vs. Predator

With 20th Century Fox reinvigorating their Alien property with Prometheus, Alien: Covenant and now Predator with The Predator, the inevitable question was bound to arise - will another Alien vs. Predator movie ever get made?

During The Predator panel at SDCC director Shane Black was asked about the possibility of the Alien and Predator ever doing battle once again on the silver screen. Black responded by acknowledging that the events of every Predator film prior and both Alien vs. Predator films have indeed already occured by the time The Predator takes place. He also took his response one step further and said he did not think the Alien vs. Predator franchise was dead at all:

Shane Black says that #ThePredator takes place in a universe where the other Predator movies, and even AVP, happened. There won't be Xenomorph references in the movie, but as Black says: "I don't think Alien Vs. Predator is dead, do you?" #SDCC18 @YahooEnt

Both AvP movies faired poorly with fans of each respective franchise but managed to make a decent profit at the box office with their 2004 and 2007 respective release dates. Given the right director and a team of dedicated writers, it's possible new life could be breathed into the AvP crossover franchise down the road.
