Screenwriter Jonathan Hensleigh originally wrote this as
a movie called Simon Says and the story was considered for the plot
of Lethal Weapon. In the originally story the Zeus character was
a woman, however after the film was picked up as a Die Hard film
he had to rework the entire script altering over half of the screenplay.
During the process Zeus became a man.
