Hurd, who has shepherded everything from The Terminator to Hulk to the big screen, is no stranger to the genre — nor is she a stranger to less than welcoming critical receptions (she’s also worked on pictures like Virus and The Punisher).
For Hurd, finding the right director for Aeon Flux hinged on hiring someone who was passionate not just about the character and the world created by animator Peter Chung, but also about their own vision of that world.
Hurd, a self-described fan of the Peter Chung series too, says that bringing the character to the live-action feature film world allowed for the ability to expand on Chung’s basic concept.

 Gary Westfahl's Bio-Encyclopedia of Science Fiction Film: Gale Anne Hurd
Today, Gale Anne Hurd is one of the few active representatives of this tradition; and if she has not quite emerged as the heroic science fiction film producer we once might have hoped for, her body of work does command respect and engender hope for the future.
A movie starring Arnold SCHWARZENEGGER as a killing machine from the future hardly sounds promising, but Cameron and Hurd made it intelligent and involving (though they were belatedly obliged, after a lawsuit, to acknowledge their debt to a story by Harlan ELLISON).
Perhaps, as she becomes more prominent as a mover and shaker in Hollywood, Hurd is evolving into the more distant sort of producer, who limits her involvement in films to making deals and writing checks.
