9 More Actors Who Begged For Their Movie Characters To Die
8. Linda Hamilton - Terminator 3
Now look, this one is a little complicated, but of
course it is
It’s the Terminator franchise after all—if they wanted to keep things simple, the story wouldn’t have revolved around the eponymous robot being sent from the future to the past to kill off a man who, if the robot succeeds, will never cause a revolution that necessitates said robot going back to kill him off, meaning that the assassination won’t happen, meaning he’ll live to cause the revolution after all—is any of this adding up?
In any case, Terminator star/ all around badass action heroine Linda Hamilton insisted that her character Sarah Connor die offscreen before the events of Terminator 3 as she (correctly) felt that the franchise’s second film was a perfect swan song for the role.
But then she showed in Dark Fate, which has invalidated the canon of everything post-Terminator 3, and the whole thing became a complicated pile up all over again.
