Terminator 4 (2009)

Starring: To be announced
Director: Jonathan Mostow
Rated: Unrated
U.S. Opening Date: Summer 2009



Why anyone would be clamouring for a fourth Terminator movie after the disappointing Terminator 3 – Rise of the Machines is a bit of a mystery. Just shows you mankind’s proclivity for unwarranted optimism I suppose . . .

Not even the money people would want another Terminator movie: the last one was so hugely expensive to make because of the legal fees involved to secure the rights as well as a salary large enough to buy a small country to entice the current governor of California back to the franchise that although the movie made oodles at the box office, it in fact barely recouped its costs.

It did however provide a massive salary for all the movie's key personnel though . . .

Anyway, it seems that director Jonathan Mostow who directed Terminator 3 has set aside some time in his schedule to direct this fourth installment. It doesn’t seem as if director James Cameron who directed and wrote the first two brilliant Terminator movies would be involved in any way . . . and neither are the two young stars of Terminator 3 either: Claire Danes and Nick Stahl haven’t been signed on?

And Arnie? Apparently they’re in discussions for him to appear in a small role in the upcoming movie. Can anyone else be the Terminator? Who knows? The Rock said he could be . . . and say what you will at least The Rock won’t be getting pensioner’s discount on the buses anytime soon . . .

The plot? Apparently the already finished script by John D. Brancato and Michael Ferris (who both did Terminator 3) skips ahead several years into the future from the ending of Terminator 3 and features a much older John Connor leading the rebellion of humans against the machines.
