Interesting. Cameron's trying to whip this franchise back into shape.
I have to be honest though, I didn't even realize Hamilton was still working. I can't remember the last time I even heard her name if it wasn't connected to a Terminator discussion.
Not a fan of this.
She turns 61 in less than a week.
Post-production endorsements loomYeah - maybe after T2, John figured that, well, they prevented judgement day, no need to get all buff and become the resistance leader now. He ends up sitting on his ass a lot, eating old school Doritos and drinking a lot of RC Cola while hacking mid-90's 28k modems and listening to GnR . Then one day, he finds out they didn't prevent judgement day, and he now must get in shape to save the world.
Cue work out montage.

Men dont age horrible like woman
Wonder how they're doing this since she was dead in the third film from cancer.
You're right @shadow_priest_x in there's no way Eddie Furlong will get cast.
But let me try something here:
John Connor literally has the weight of the entire world on his shoulders; he was told from a young age the machines will rise and end mankind and he is literally the saviour.
What do you think that would do to a person really? All that pressure, all that expectation. What do you think it would do to a big momma's boy?
You'd crack, you'd crumble under the pressure, the burden of this. You'd self destruct, become a self loathing, self doubting mess.
And you'd end up like this

It could be a story of JC's redemption and living up to being the saviour of mankind.
So Furlong could start the movie looking like the tub of crap he looks here, but redeem himself and fulfill his destiny and become awesome.
But still a fat tub of shit.
It's fun to dream
It's *something* *something* *something*-ist not to accept Edward Furlong in the role just because he doesn't look like a built Christian Bale. If he did, people would be pining for his return.
they'll probably just ignore the shitty ones, like the Halloween series did.Wonder how they're doing this since she was dead in the third film from cancer.

Breaking News: Linda Hamilton to Return for New TERMINATOR Movie!

.
Bale looks like a leader, and it really isn't because of muscles. He just has a leader quality about him. And john connor has to have that. If furlong doesn't have that, it's nothing personal, but he can't be john connor. Nick stahl also was lacking that. Remember how ridiculous stahl looked as an adult john connor in that future war scene? Some guys just don't look like leaders. Some do.
Wow, James Cameron taking on3 or 4 Avitar movies as well as 3 more Terminators.... My man is buzy.
I like the angle of her coming back older & super bad ass... She killed it in T1 & T2 & I'd expect her to kill it again. Of coarse Arnold being back is a treat.
Interesting they said it will mostly star the young actors though. I hope Arnold & Linda get some decent screen time.
Is this actor known?
Happy Hamilton is returning but why does he need to make a statement on gender roles in action movies?
Arnold be like....I'm ok with this:

Dammit, if they can make Carrie Fisher look passable for Ep VII, I have no doubt they can make Furlong look passable too.
