The Sarah Connor Chronicles are coming. Yes… the same Sarah Connor from The Terminator franchise. Only she isn’t coming to a theater near you… she’s coming to a TV screen.
Hot on the heels of the Blade TV series, it look like the Terminator is taking to the airwaves. The good folks over at Comingsoon give us this:
The new installment in the “Terminator” franchise revolves around Connor and her savior son, John Connor. The series will explore what happened to Sarah Connor after the end of Terminator 2: Judgment Day, when the character went on the run.
The franchise seems to be in experienced hands too. David Nutter will direct… he’s also directed the pilots for Smallville and Supernatural, so the dude seems to know what he’s doing.
I’ll admit that I think this is a great idea. Sarah Connor is a terrific character and I’d love to see the events after T:2.
There isn’t any word on cast yet, but it’s a pretty safe bet that it won’t be Linda Hamilton… which at first I thought was too bad… but she is 50 years old now and probably wouldn’t fit the bill. What do you think about this?
