Director Justin Lin is a very, very busy man nowadays. He supposed to make TERMINATOR 5 but he is forced to set aside his plan because there's too many scheduling conflicts he needs to be done first. After all, he's currently too committed on doing THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS 6 and 7 back to back. It's definitely a sad news for die-hard fans who's been longing for TERMINATOR 5 and the comeback of Schwarzenegger's iconic role, but Lin doesn't dismiss the franchise completely. The only question is: When is he going to do the fifth installment?
But recently, Los Angeles Times has revealed that Lin has an idea of how to make the 65-year-old Schwarzenegger relevant to the fifth installment because he knows that there are people out there thinks Schwarzenegger is too old to carry such a role. Fortunately, Lin assures however that there is most definitely a place for Schwarzenegger in the fifth movie. Here's what he had to say below.
There is a way to do that. I don’t want to give anything away but I have a very clear idea thematically and arc-wise where we can go. Again, it’s been just great to throw that around with James and Arnold. Is time our enemy? Well, there is a ticking clock but anytime anything goes into development — with the state of filmmaking and the way films get made — you’re always fighting for more time. The biggest enemy is rushing things. I don’t think it should be rushed. Creatively, it will come when it comes. Passion is always the currency and it’s the thing that will create momentum. If that’s not there you shouldn’t do it. Obviously, there’s a lot of money involved and with that money the clock is going to keep ticking.
From the look of his statement, it's certain that Lin has a lot of passion for TERMINATOR 5. But whatever it is, I really hope he doesn't sit this out too long before Schwarzenegger gets any older until he is unable to do physical stunts anymore.
