A grain of salt comes to mind here but I'll pass this along to you Maniacs. A wild new rumor has popped up today saying that Linda Hamilton could be coming for flashbacks in the upcoming Terminator Salvation by Warner Bros. and director McG. This one seems very doubtful but Lou at Pause.com suggests that Linda could be on board all three films, solely for flashback moments.

If it is true, she would be co-starring alongside Christian Bale, Sam Worthington, Anton Yelchin, Bryce Dallas Howard, Moon Bloodgood, Common, Jadagrace and Helena Bonham Carter. McG is directing, based on a screenplay by John Brancato and Michael Ferris.

We'll update this when this particular rumor gets shot down or confirmed.

Terminator Salvation will hit theaters May 22, 2009.

The rumor I heard was that in the future terminators are used as fashion police, and when Sarah Conner shows up in her 1984 hairdo, well, let's just say it isn't pretty.

Who'da thunk? Here's hoping!

You know it's true. Linda Hamilton probably begging to be in it, she's got bills to pay. Last film I saw Hamilton in was Dante's Peak!

How does she look now a days? She was in her mid 30s back when T2 came out, it's been 16 years since T2, so she must be in her early 50s today. How is that gonna work in flashback scenes?

Leave her out of it, Amish is right,stick with Lena Headey better. She fits the age that a young Connor would remember his mother in.

Not gonna happen. McG has already come out and said he's keeping this far away from the TV show. I agree with the sentiment though.

I'm glad they're not acknowledging the tv show.

Linda Hamilton was blacklisted once Cameron dumped her. I wouldn't mind seeing her again but it isn't going to make or break the film.

Off topic, anyone see the report where Mike O'Hearn (Titan on gladiators) is claiming that he's auditioning for Conan and Captain America. He may be full of shit but he made that claim on a radio show. Unbeknownst to me he has SOME acting experience.

Hanso, let me tell you how that's going to happen, it's called CGI my friend...If you recall the last X-Men movie at the beginning where professor Xavier and Magneto go to visit Jean Grey as a girl, they looked looked about 25 years younger, well it's because of CGI and some lighting and make up maybe a little plastic surgery and so on and so forth...

If that's what they plan on doing, then so be it, just make a good movie McG, that's all anyone is asking for...
