Reports are coming in that Jason Clarke is in talks to lead the human race to salvation against the battle against machines, in the movies of course, specifically the Terminator reboot which has long been coming. The Lawless and Zero Dark Thirty actor is being tipped to play the role of John Connor in the 5th installment of the film franchise.
The Australian actor (known affectionately as JC to his friends…okay that’s completely made up) will join Arnold Schwarzenegger who is set to reprise his role as the Terminator character in a new film series which is set around Connor sending the Terminator back to protect Sarah Connor as she grows up. Thor: The Dark World director Alan Taylor will be at the helm of the reboot which has previously seen Edward Furlong, Nick Stahl & Christian Bale star as the leader of the human race.
It’s all very exciting news for the reboot which could do with some cemented casting to help push forward the hype, but as of yet this is all early days though it would be great to see a combination of Clarke and Schwarzeneggar, who seems eager to get back to the role that put him on the map in the first place. While the role of Sarah Connor is still up in the air actresses Emilia Clarke (Game of Thrones) and Brie Larson are the latest names being thrown into the mix.
The film, which is being titled Terminator Genesis, is tipped for a 2015 release date.
