Is Josh Brolin the new terminator in the upcoming Terminator Salvation trilogy? Perhaps so if we pick up on the hints provided by director McG below. In an interview with The Two-One Three, the director answered questions on whether Connor (Christian Bale) has a large role, status of script, and hinted at who might be playing the next terminator model if he gets his way...
Script update:
"We're prepping the picture right now. The script is largely done, whether or not we're able to prep off of it, obviously we want to continue to work on it, punch it up and we're hoping for an expedient finish to the writer's strike. But I've got my fingers crossed that in a week or two it will be over," McG said.
The Timeline:
"Post Judgment day. So there really is no continuation, you know what I mean? Its sort of a different animal, whereas the first two pictures on this thing are Terminators from the future, this picture takes place in 2019."
Denial of reports of Bale having a limited role:
"John Connor's a major player in it - Christian Bale's playing that part."
Who's playing the next Terminator model?
"...And there's guys out there like Russell Crowe and Eric Bana, bring a good physicality, they do what they do, but I don't know if they're exactly right at the end of the day. (Smiles) Josh Brolin is a very exciting actor - we'll see."
The first installment, Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins, will hit theaters Summer 2009.
