Can a TERMINATOR film be made with out Arnold? Seems we're going to find out soon enough. One good thing is that it appears that Christian Bale is going to take part in this one. Pretty much love anything this guy has ever done so his inclusion bodes well in my book.
CHUD gathered all their sources and has posted a synopsis of all the available info on the film. There are some spoilers so proceed with caution:
John Connor is not the main character of Terminator 4;
that character is someone named Marcus. Marcus was put 'out of
commission' before the nuclear holocaust on Judgment Day and he wakes
up about 15 years before the future we see in the original Terminator films,
which puts the movie at about 2015 or so. Marcus is a bad ass - think
along the lines of Riddick - and what he finds is a blasted world
filled with horror. Radiation poisoning, starvation, rampant jaywalking
- all the things you expect post-apocalypse. There's also John Connor,
who is trying to build a utopian society while running the human
resistance.
Connor's role is apparently bigger in the second film; whoever they hire for Marcus (my understanding is that the part is not yet cast) will be around for all three films. Terminator 4
is going to be the most male-centric of all the Terminator films, but
there is a butt busting female character by the name of Blair, a pilot
for the human resistance.
They're going to need some buttkickers, because the scope of the action in Terminator 4
is HUGE. Lots of machine action in this film, including some battles
with the T-600s. Yup, the rubber skin Terminators. And there's another
familiar character that shows up - Reese shows up in a scene with John
Connor. I don't know what his involvement in the next two films will
be, though.
Finally, here's a story point that's probably a
legitimate spoiler (although it's sort of the main crux around which
the story revolves, so it will probably get blown in the advertising),
so I'll invisotext this stuff: A
big aspect of the story is the degrees of difference between a human
and a Terminator. By which I mean cyborgs. By which I mean human brains
in robot bodies.
Sounds interesting at least. We'll keep an eye on this one for you and will update you as cool stuff becomes available.
