We Have a New Sarah Connor!
Remember when we told you that some folks were turning the "Terminator" series into a weekly TV show? Well, they still are -- and they hired a really attractive actress to play Sarah Connor.
From Variety: "Lena Headey has landed the plum leading role in the Fox pilot "The Sarah Connor Chronicles." Project, from Warner Bros. TV, continues the "Terminator" movie franchise storyline by focusing on Sarah and her son John, as they fight attackers from the future in present-day Los Angeles. Headey takes over the role made famous by Linda Hamilton in the first two "Terminator" films."
You'd probably recognize Ms. Headey from her roles in "Imagine Me & You," "The Cave," "The Brothers Grimm," "Ripley's Game," and next year's "300."
The initial "Chronicles" will come from director David Nutter and screenwriter Josh Friedman.

on Nov 08 2006 05:35 AM TV series? Whaaaaaaa? That's cool I guess, but I never even knew they were going to do this. Just don't do a crappy job. (Reply to this) |
on Nov 08 2006 06:32 AM I really don't see how this will fit in with the timeline of the movies.....? Is it going to be set between 1 and 2, or 2 and 3?? That's all that could work really, since Sarah's no longer around in T3. And even with having to come to that conclusion, judging by what is said in movies 1-3, you'd think there weren't that many chronicles so to speak of in between. (Reply to this) |

on Nov 08 2006 07:24 AM ugh, I've already made my complaints against this show, I hope it bombs. (Reply to this) |

on Nov 08 2006 07:30 AM They're totally going to wreck the Terminator movies timeline with the show. (Reply to this) |

on Nov 08 2006 08:55 AM Who cares? The Terminator movies are so overrated anyway. (Reply to this) |

on Nov 08 2006 10:05 AM What? Overrated? Do you watch sci-fi movies? Granted the third one sucks but T2 is in the top 5 of alltime great sci-fi movies. Also the first one broke new ground in the genre like never before and got Cameron noticed in Hollywood so that he was able to make Aliens which is also in the top 5. I'm excited but I have my doubts about the tv show. (Reply to this) |
on Nov 08 2006 10:09 AM I didn't really give a crap about this show, but I love Lena Headey so I'm definitely going to watch it now. (Reply to this) |

on Nov 08 2006 10:43 AM In reply to this comment (#848387) I watch House.... Thats it...I don't flipping care. And T2 is not a top fiver on ANY list. It was ok...maybe good...but worthy of a TV show....NO. But... looking at TV and what is on, can't say it surprises me. Grading on a curve it might be a decent show. I won't watch it, but I don't watch much(House). (Reply to this) |

on Nov 09 2006 06:12 AM In reply to this comment (#848390) Nice try, but I think I'm gonna have to go with the 'bookish librarian' comment too. (Reply to this) |
on Nov 09 2006 03:15 PM [b]OK[/b] she is HARDLY bookish (Reply to this) |
|
on Nov 09 2006 10:08 PM [b]Yeah, sure.[/b] I'd really like to go to the libraries you guys go to. (Reply to this) |
