Is Josh Brolin the New Terminator?

Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins might have found its Terminator. According to 213.net, which recently interviewed Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins director McG, the helmer hinted at who might fill Arnold Schwarzenegger's shoes.

When asked who would be his "dream Terminator" the director offered this.

"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."

McG also dispelled the rumors that John Connor won't have a main role in the film.

"John Connor's a major player in it - Christian Bale's playing that part."

McG also said that the film will take place in the year 2019, post-Judgment Day and that this film is "sort of a different animal." He also gave some word on the status of the project.

"We're prepping the picture right now. The script is largely done, whether or not we're able to prep off of it, obviously we want to continue to work on it, punch it up and we're hoping for an expedient finish to the writer's strike. But I've got my fingers crossed that in a week or two it will be over."

Ehh Josh Brolin, if you are reading this, I have one thing to say. Annie gave your brother lip action in GOONIES, and she said it was beautiful. She didn't say that when you first kissed her. LOL hahahahhahahaha. Don't worry bro, Smeegle from Lord Of The Rings said he is a FAT hobbit, and that he always sees him stuffing himself with elvish bread. hahahahahahaha

WHAT!? you think that Tyrese would be better at the Terminator role than Michael Clarke Duncan? I dont understand your philosophy on that one. Watch the Green Mile and watch when he grabs Percy. The power and rage through his actions and expressions would be perfect for a Terminator.

He was the only black guy I could think of at the moment that has the right build, could kick some ass, fire guns, and blow stuff up. He's still the only one I can think of. But MCD...uh, not really terminator material. heh, heh, heh

Brolin is going to be awesome. Man andrew what is it with you and Tyrese? you want him for alot of roles. He has moments of Glory in aa few of the roles he has played, but overall i dont think he would be right for the role of the Termnator. Now if you want a big black guy to kick some ass its about time this guy get landed a role to do so...Michael Clarke Duncan

I know, first it was Channing Tatum as Duke, then it was joe johnston on wolfman. If they all of a sudden decide to go with diesel or gibson as terminator i'm gonna freak out!! In a good way though.
