Josh Brolin Is The Terminator?
From moviesonline, Now I am not one of those HUGE Terminator fans but I still think that Terminator 2 is one of the best action films ever made. The first film has its ups and downs and honestly I have never seen the 3rd. Don't even get me started about how ridiculous the new TV show looks. Anyway I am still looking forward to the new Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins with Christian Bale playing John Connor and McG at the helm.
The213.net had the chance to catch up with director McG and ask him a couple of questions about the film. When he was pressed about who he would like to play his "dream" Terminator he told the site, "..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."
The timeline of the film was also questioned, "It's a little tricky, but I mean obviously there's some liberties taken. We're going to do what we can to respect them all, but there are indeed some timeline issues." He continues, "This is the space between; this is post Judgment day. So there really is no continuation, you know what I mean? Its sort of a different animal, whereas the first two pictures on this thing are Terminators from the future, this picture takes place in 2019."
Now I first was introduced to Josh Brolin in Grindhouse believe it or not and I thought he did a fantastic job. Of course I had seen him in other films but it wasn't until Grindhouse that I really began to appreciate his work. I like his approach to a character and he definitely has the look of the next Terminator. Hopefully somebody will get in contact with Brolin and get this man the part!
