Here is some interesting news from the Terminator Salvation: The Furture Begins front. While McG already made headlines by announcing that Christian Bale will play John Connor, he has once again grabbed our highest level of attention with another possible casting decision. So - who to play the Terminator?
Josh Brolin a Terminator?
During an interview with McG, the213 did some investigating on who the director saw fit to become the next flesh-covered cyborg.
213): Who would be your “dream Terminator”?
McG: That's very difficult to say!
(213): Come on, who would be McG's “dream Terminator”?!
McG: You know, those are big shoes to fill. If you go back and look at the first picture it's so funny because there's such a decided difference between what Arnold was doing in the first picture and in the second and third picture. I mean there's this decided physicality - look what Robert Patrick did to get ready for the role. He's a guy who I adore, I put him in every movie I've ever done. And it's very difficult to say because it's a decidedly masculine role and I think we're living in a time where a lot of actors are very effeminate and they're sort of skinny, heroine chic and there's really a masculine component to the role. 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.
Josh Brolin the next Terminator? I got to admit I like that. Brolin's got the looks, and we've now seen him in a ton of films playing the 'bad guy.' Just a few months in the gym and he should be shipshape.
