Linda Hamilton will somehow show up in the new batch of Terminator movies, starting with Terminator Salvation?
According to pause.com, Hamilton is signed up for a three picture deal to reprise her part as Sarah Connor in flashback sequences. One problem though, Linda Hamilton’s representatives have already denied it. They say they haven’t heard about it. Of course, reps lie all the time, so it’s hard to say whether their denial, or any PR rep’s denial for that matter, means much. Denial is generally their default position.
What makes this whole thing even more suspicious than denials from Linda’s publicist though, is the context in which Terminator Salvation director McG has been talking about his movie. From the project’s very beginning, he’s gone out of his way to position the thing as a brand new beginning for the franchise, a starting over for the whole idea. If that’s what he’s after, it sure wouldn’t make much sense to dig up Hamilton wherever she’s been hiding and shove her into a few flashbacks. By definition that’s living in the past, something McG has been adamant about not doing.
