Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins
 

Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins is quickly moving into production over at Warner Brothers. According to Variety, the film will begin shooting in early 2008 with a revised storyline that could expand into two more feature films.

This new version of the old franchise will be similar in scale to Terminator 3: Rise Of The Machines, and will have an event sized budget. At the same time, Warner Brothers is also producing a small screen adaptation of The Terminator entitled The Sarah Connor Chronicles, which will air on Fox during its midseason run early next year.

John Brancato and Michael Ferris have completed a final draft of the screenplay, and the studio is currently looking for a director to helm the project. At this time, McG is likely to step behind the camera for the first entry in this proposed trilogy, but no deal has been signed at this date and time.

As for Arnold Schwarzenegger's participation in the film, executive producer Moritz Borman stated, "We've left it open for him to maybe do a cameo. He has an important job, as we know, and the final decision will be based on his desire and availability, along with what the director wants."

Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins will be released in the summer of 2009.

Warner Bros. Pictures has acquired North American distribution rights to "Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins," putting the project on the fast track to begin production in early 2008 reports Variety.

Halcyon is producing 'Salvation' which plans to reinvent James Cameron's cyborg saga with a storyline to be told over the course of a trilogy set in the future. The producers said that the new film will carry the size and scale of "Terminator 3," and will have an event-sized budget.

"T3" scribes John Brancato and Michael Ferris penned the screenplay, whilst a director is being finalised (McG is the odds-on favorite). The producers said it wasn't yet clear whether Arnold Schwarzenegger will be back for his fourth appearance in the franchise, but they've left it open for him to do a cameo.

Sony Pictures Entertainment, which distributed "T3" in most overseas territories, is expected to get first crack at international distribution. A Summer 2009 release date set.

LEAVE IT ALONE ALREADY!!!!! :banghead::thumbdown::hammer:

for the love of god, do NOT do to Terminator what has been done to Batman.

I take it you don't like the treatment that Begins, and the soon to be released, Dark Knight re-imaginings got?

Begins was way better than all those shit batman movies that went before it(like the one with George Clooney LOL), if they manage to step up a notch with this one from T3 I say bring it on.

And guess who's in it :-): http://hollywoodinsider.ew.com/2007/...tian-bale.html

Seems like Christian Bale is popping up everywhere it seems. After Rescue Dawn, I have to say, its looking like he's got some acting prowess too! Not that i'm specifically expecting that out of him in a Terminator roll :P

bound to be crap.!

give it to michael bay.. let me do it !

Excellent, now the real good shit begins with this movie, the world is destroyed, the robots control everything, GREAT!!!!
