WHAT THE STUDIO WANTS YOU TO KNOW

    In the aftermath of Judgment Day and takeover by the machines, John Connor (Christian Bale, The Dark Knight), the destined leader of the human resistance, must counter Skynet's devastating plan to terminate mankind. As Connor rallies his underground street fighters for a last, desperate battle, he realizes that to save the future he must rescue his own father, Kyle Reese (Anton Yelchin, Star Trek). But the most shocking discovery comes with the arrival of Marcus Wright (Sam Worthington, Avatar), a mysterious loner from the past who challenges Connor with an impossible choice that will determine the future of the human race - leading them both on a brutal journey into the very heart of the enemy.

THE GEEK BOX
TRIVIA TO IMPRESS YOUR EASILY IMPRESSED FRIENDS

• Originally the role of John Connor was written as a small cameo, however after reading the script Christian Bale agreed to do the film if they could make John Connor the lead. The script was then promptly rewritten around the John Connor.
• This is the first film in the Terminator series to not receive an R rating, instead being cut down to receive a PG-13 rating.
• While filming an intense scene Christian Bale became distracted by cinematographer Shane Hurlbut and went off on a profanity-laden rant at the worker. The infamous debacle was caught on film and was leaked on the internet, after which Bale publicly apologized and stated that Hurlbut and he were on good terms.
• The old recordings of Sarah Connor heard in the film are similar to lines heard in the previous films, however they were recorded especially for the film by Linda Hamilton who originated the role. She did not receive a film credit for the voice work.
• Arnold Schwarzenegger was asked to play a cameo in the film, however he declined, feeling that showing up in such a small role would "cheat" the fans. So instead the makers of the film used special effect to digitally transplant Schwarzenegger's face over another actor's real one.
• 4 time Oscar-winning special effects guru Stan Winston died while making this film, however before his death he filmed a cameo. He plays a white-haired prisoner that can be seen shortly after the raid on the gas station.
• This film had several last minute uncredited rewrites done by Paul Haggis, Shawn Ryan, Anthony E. Zuker and Jonathan Nolan. The shooting script had changed so much from the original approved shooting script, that it was described as unrecognizable.
