Now McG says Arnold is NOT in Terminator Salvation. Yet

Now McG says Arnold is NOT in \<i\>Terminator Salvation\<\/i\>. Yet

You know MTV.com's report that California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger was confirmed to appear in a cameo in Terminator Salvation? Seems it was, as we expected, a wee bit premature.

Director McG himself put the site off its earlier report.

"Who said that? Was it Terry Crews?" McG said, referring to the cast member who gave the site the news. "Yeah, I heard about that." He added: "Not yet. In fact, today is April 10th, I'm doing this interview on April 10th, and we don't know if Schwarzenegger is in the movie or not; it's not clear. I can say that."

Given that the movie is completely shot and opening in five weeks, we're going to go out on a limb and say: It's not going to happen!

Oh, sure, there might be an image of Arnold's original T-800 cyborg in the film somewhere, or even some kind of computer-generated appearance of the governor's face, but the man himself is extremely unlikely to show up.

There, we said it. Terminator Salvation opens May 21.

Don't worry, he'll be back (of course) in T5: The T1000 Returns

There are tons of rumors about Arnold being in the movie but I highly doubt it. It's all just wishful thinking.

Odd either he's in the movie or he's not, there is no maybe, most likey, or perhaps. Arnold said a while back ago he had no interest in doing it, then this Crews guy says he seen him on the set....

Perhaps Arnold filmed a scene and maybe McG is just saving it for a later picture, T5.... T6. Sounds to me that Arnold did film a segment and McG just doesn't know where to put it yet, but who knows.

It's probably safer to say it's best to downshoot rumors just at least until may gets here.

All these rumors are getting continuous. Here in another week we'll be getting another news article from scifi saying he's in the movie.
