On July 30, 1999, it was reported that McQuarrie was attached to direct Alexander, a biographical film about Alexander the Great, for Warner Bros. Pictures.

2000s

Untitled military action adventure film

On March 18, 2004, it was reported that McQuarrie would write the screenplay for an untitled military action adventure film for Paramount Pictures, with Sean Daniel, Jim Jacks, and Michelle Manning producing and McQuarrie also serving as an executive producer.

2010s

Star Blazers

In February 2011, McQuarrie was hired by Skydance Media to write and produce a feature film adaptation of the 1970s animated television series Star Blazers (itself an adaptation of anime Space Battleship Yamato).
