TERMINATOR 4 updates

By Matt Holmes / June 25, 2011

pre-strike movie list we published two weeks ago, the much talked about TERMINATOR 4 was absent, leading us to believe once again that the movie had hit a snag and was placed firmly on the back burner once again. That might not exactly be true if you are to believe Sarah Middleton, the producer of THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES as she once again reiterates that the fourth movie in the franchise will actually be the first of a new three movie arc. She confirms that the writers of THE TERMINATOR 3: RISE OF THE MACHINES are still on board (which like I said when it was first announced this makes no sense what-so-ever) and that although they haven't found a director, they want production to have begun next month for a 2009 release. She claims the John Connor and Kate Brewster characters are written into the script but it's not known whether Nick Stahl or Claire Danes would be approached to reprise their roles from the last movie. The title will not be TERMINATOR 4 and will be titled TERMINATOR: "BLAH BLAH BLAH" as previously speculated, and interestingly it will feature a new hero...

"Ben-Hur was influenced by Jesus Christ, but it was his story. Much in that way, this character will be influenced by John Connor."

End of update. It's not really much of what we didn't know already about from that the movie is being fast tracked, with the hope of work beginning on the flick next month. We are once again just left to speculate on the rumors of Edward Furlong returning and whether this male model will be THE TERMINATOR...
