Director McG had a very extensive interview with The213.net recently. He talked about the film, and hinted that one of Hollywood’s most sought out actors; Josh Brolin might be the new terminator in his upcoming film, The Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins.
Comingsoon.net gives us this excerpt from the interview via The213.net:
Asked who his “dream Terminator” would be? McG revealed, “…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.”
Wow…I can not believe this project is getting this much attention. After the third film, I was sure that the future Terminator films would go down hill, but it looks like the upcoming post-apocalyptic film has resurrected the hype.
Another interesting tidbit is that although it has been rumored that John Connor has a small part, McG confirmed that those rumors were NOT true, and that John Connor is one of the main characters.
A movie starring Christian Bale and possibly Josh Brolin with killer machines? Who is as excited as I am right now?
The Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins starts shooting later this year.
