Variety magazine reports that Christian Bale will play John Connor in the newest installment of the “Terminator” movie franchise. Bale will play Connor, now in his 30’s, as he leads what is left of the human race against the machines. The good news for sci-fi geeks and fans is that this movie will be set in the future. McG is directing the project which has an April start date in Budapest.

The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed rumors that Christian Bale is in negotiations to star in “Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins”. McG (”Charlie’s Angels” and “We Are Marshall”) is directing the movie, which is being made by Halcyon Company and Intermedia, and will be distributed by Warner Bros.

Christian Bale stars in next summer’s highly-anticipated Batman Begins sequel, “The Dark Knight”. If things go as planned, the actor will be headlining two major pictures for the studio “Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins” and the new Batman movie. The Producers of “T4″ intend the project to be the first in a trilogy reinventing the franchise.

I loved all of the “Terminator” movies and am excited for this January’s “The Sarah Connor Chronicles” on FOX. I remember watching “T2″ and hoping we would see sequels that show the rise of Connor and the end of the machines. If executed right, this movie franchise could spawn a new generation of fans.
