Are there equivalent theories of general relativity that assume a graviton has a spin-1?

Since GR predicts that the graviton has spin-2 (or, more precisely, that gravitational waves have two helicity-2 polarizations), then by definition any theory that predicts that a graviton has spin-1 must be different from GR.
