Ok, let me first say that I’m not convinced there is going to be a Terminator 5. Oh I know they’ve PLANNED for another Terminator movie and that Christian Bale is signed on… but that doesn’t mean it’s going to happen. Terminator: Salvation didn’t do the type of box office business that they were hoping for, and word of mouth hasn’t been it’s ally. I not saying there WON’T be another Terminator movie… I’m just saying don’t totally count on it.
With that being said, there was a rumor out a few weeks ago that McG (does that come with a McHappy Meal?) has plans for another time travel plot device for his next Terminator movie that would see John Conor coming back in time. Well… there is another rumor out today that seems to back that first one up. BleedingCool says the following:
I hear from industry sources that yet-to-be-named Terminator 5, the sequel to Terminator: Salvation, will be set in London in the year 2011, with a time-travelling John Connor (Christian Bale).
Like I said before, this is consistent with earlier rumors so there could be something with it. Personally, I really don’t care if there is another Terminator movie or not. I was sort of let down by Terminator Salvation and I never bought Christian Bale as John Conor. Another time travel plot seems like a bit of a waste too. Oh well… like everything else let’s wait and see.
