Concept Art For Vincenzo Natali's Unmade Neuromancer, It, And Predator Movies

I'm always fascinated with the stories of movies that never were (like Darren Aronofsky's vision of Batman). So much work in Hollywood never makes it to the big screen. From pitches to development, to years of scripts, casting, and even screen tests, films have a long road before cameras begin to roll. And we only occasionally see remnants of these unmade productions.

Most common are abandoned scripts which have leaked online over the years (like Frank Darabont's draft of Indiana Jones 4). Sometimes we get costume tests and concept art, like has happened with Tim Burton's Superman Lives. But other times we get a glimpse into the pitching process, be it a video like Kevin Tancharoen's 'The Hunger Games' Pitch Trailer or concept art for an idea that never made it into development. And sometimes a filmmaker posts abandoned concept art and it sparks the fire and a movie is reborn (as is with Neill Blomkamp's Alien film).

Splice/Cube/Hannibal director Vincenzo Natali has been posting some of the early concept art and pitch work that was created for some of his unmade movies, including Neuromancer, Stephen King's It, Swamp Thing and Predator. Take a look at the Vincenzo Natali Neuromancer It and Predator concept artwork after the jump.
