Kyle Reese in this movie. As minute as it will be',"

Arnold Fan reports that Lance Henrikson (Millenium) has
joined the cast of Terminator 3: Rise Of The Machines. The
site reports, "Henriksen informed me Cameron was toying
around with the idea of having detective Vukovich [from Terminator
2] return in a wheelchair with some battle damage. As we never
do see detective Vukovich die, but only rather an implied
death, many Henriksen fans would love to see a return."
The site also states that special effects god Stan Winston
has signed on for the film.
29/1/02
Arnold Schwarzenegger has been talking
about why James Cameron isn't firecting Terminator 3: Rise
Of The Machines, this appeared over at Cinescape,
First of all, Cameron was not interested in doing the
movie because he felt like he did not want to tie himself
down to any time schedule on any movie, said Schwarzenegger.
He just, as you know, finished shooting the Imax movie
and he will be finished this summer editing it. Then he will
be thinking about the next thing
whatever that is. He
does not know probably nor does anyone else. So when you buy
a movie like that, I think you have to move on it because
the amount of money you put out is extraordinary. So he said
right away, No. I dont want to get into that situation.
So the next thing became, Lets find someone that
is young and that has this young spirit of new ideas and all
of that. And when you saw, U-571 we all felt that Jonathan
had the kind of talent and patience and know-how to work with
special effects, visual effects and all of that. Then when
we met him, it became more and more clear that he has the
right personality and calmness to do the film. And he has
since then proven that by hiring the best of the best people
around him from ILM to stunt coordinators to cameramen. Hes
been extremely good at prepping the movie and reworking the
script and all of that stuff.
(appeared at Cinescape).
Latino
Review bagged news of an interview with Arnold Schwarzenegger,
who commented on Terminator 3 whilst doing promotional work
for Collateral Damage. He says that he will be playing acyborg
character in the new movie, but this time the Terminator has
a glitch and will be constantly switching between good and
bad modes. He also revealed that Linda Hamilton will appear
in the film, "She is in the movie as flash backs,
but they felt like they didn't want the exact same cast and
be limited with the story, but take certain people out. Let's
just assume that she died already and he (John Connor) is
on his own rather than his mother whining away (Laughing)
They felt like you know John Connor is 22-23 years old his
mother died and his is alone and lets move on."
(appeared at Latino
Review).

We're hearing reports today that comebody
is attched to play the role of John Connor in Terminator 3.
That person, according to The Guardian newspaper here in the
UK is............Edward Norton. How cool is that! This is
just a rumour as it has not been confirmed by anyone associated
with the movie. The Guardian also report that Arnold Schwarzenegger
will pick up a record $30 million salary for the movie, plus
director Jonathan Mostow will pocket more than $5 million.
The Guardian's film website, Film
Unlimited also says that James Cameron sold the rights
for another sequel in the Terminator series (to producer Gale
Anne Herd) on the condition that it would only be made with
Mostow directing. Finally, thes site states that Mostow took
on long time collaborators John Brancato and Michael Ferris
to write the script.
4 /12/01
With the script now comlete, it looks
like Terminator 3 will go before the cameras in April of 2002
ready for a Summer 2003 release. All major Hollywood studios
are bidding for the US distribution rights to the movie as
well as domestic video distributoin rights. The film is expected
to have a production budget of around $170 million, the biggest
budget for a greenlit movie. The record is currently held
by Pearl Harbor which kicked off its production at $140 million.
(Appeared at Movie
Headlines).
Meanwhile here's an interview that appeared in The Independent
On Sunday newspaper a month back when our site was being redesigned.
Linda Hamilton talked about the reason why she opted not to
appear in The Terminator's second sequel. 'I read the script
and it didn't take my character in any new directions, The
film is really about turning the baton over to Sarah's son
John, played by Eddie Furlong. It's Eddie's movie - and Arnold's.
It was like a no-win situation for me.'
12/8/01
Upcoming
Movies reports that T3 may be posponed as Arnold Schwarzenegger
has opted to star in mob comedy Ump next. This will push the
shoot back until at the least early-mid 2002, so expect to
hear that Terminator 3 will be released in the summer of 2003
alongside the also postponed Matrix sequel.
26/7/01
At the premiere of Planet Of The Apes
over in New York a couple of days back, US basketball star
Shaquille O' Neill said that he has the script for Terminator
3 'at home with him right now'. The massive sports star also
said that he wanted to get back into action movies. On Dark
Horizons today, a small piece was posted saying that Vin
Diesel, the actor attached to the project just a couple of
days ago (see below), has not been approached by the filmmakers.
It seems that they want O' Neill. More news as it comes in.
22/7/01
It's official, Vin Diesel has officially been confirmed to
star in Terminator 3. He will play the T1-G after speaking
on Century FM here in the UK. Jonathan Mostow is also confirmed
to direct.Also at the San Diego Comics Con, Stan Winston said
that he expects to be involved with the film but it is still
in its early stages of production.
Updated : 1/7/01
The most notable fact regarding this proposed sequel is the
absence of creator James Cameron. In talks to helm this time
around is Breakdown and U-571 director, Jonathan Mostow. Other
directors attached have been David Fincher, Ridley Scott,
Roland Emmerich and Christian Duguay (The Art Of War). Writing
credit belongs to Tedi Sarafian with rewrites being done by
John Brancato and Michael Ferris who were previousley resposible
for the excellent David Fincher film, The Game. The fact that
this suo have been brought in fuels a rumour that the villain
of the film may be male and not female as first thought. A
name attached already to the male role is Vin Diesel (The
Fast & The Furious, Pitch Black). The female role would,
if the rumour is true, be one of the good guys.
Arnold Schwarzenegger has officially confirmed that he will
return although the actor did state that he hoped to be reunited
with James Cameron again. The collaboration will not have
to be reserved for the proposed True Lies sequel as Cameron
has finally said that he definatley will pass on directing
T3.
Shooting has been put back from early spring 2001 to later
in the year, after the proposed SAG strike.
It's worth noting that T3 will be the first of two sequels
proposed by C-2 Pictures, a company set up by ex-Carolco guys
Mario Kassar and Andrew Vajna specifically to make the films.
