Arnold Schwarzenegger Considering Terminator Reboot, and 7 Other Stories You'll Be Talking About Today

arnold_terminator_225.jpgAlso in this Monday edition of The Broadsheet: James Cameron wants Michael Bay to save 3-D... Sheenpocalypse continues with news of a potential cable deal... James Franco finally quits a project... and more ahead.

· Arnold Schwarzenegger dropped a few hints about what projects he is considering for his return to acting at the Arnold Seminar during the annual Arnold Classic, and yes, follow-ups to The Terminator, Predator and The Running Man are on the list. That said, he claims he's looking at a total of fifteen scripts and that many of them are original. Fingers still crossed that one has him playing an elephant hunter.

· Yo, Michael Bay! Got any more candid straight talk or hilarious hyperbole about Transformers: The Dark of the Moon? Oh, really? James Cameron said that 3-D would die without your help? Good enough! [Empire]

· Charlie Sheen is apparently "in talks" with Mark Cuban about developing his own TV show for Cuban's HDNet channel. Other news: Each new Sheen story now immediately causes my mind to conjure an image of the final wave Patrick Swayze rides in Point Break. [Deadline]

· James Franco finally dropped a project! He has apparently pulled out of Noah Baumbach's upcoming film While We're Young because of scheduling conflicts with Sam Raimi's Oz: The Great and Powerful. Cate Blanchett has also left the project without giving an official reason. Ben Stiller is still in. [Latino Review]

· Are you still waiting for the return of the edgy, reliable Vince Vaughn, who carried indie classics like Swingers and Clay Pigeons? If so, I apologize. Universal has just announced that he will star in a new relationship comedy called The Insane Laws. [Empire]

· Harvey Weinstein's favorite mistakes include smoking on an airplane without Kate Moss and passing on The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. [Newsweek]

· Al Pacino is having some tax trouble. [TMZ

· The producers who bought the rights to Blade Runner would like their film to be like a Christopher Nolan movie. Ideally, they would actually love Nolan to direct it! I imagine this is also the case for virtually every other Hollywood thriller currently in development. [io9]

  • Gonna take a lot of CGI to make Ahnold a Terminator again.

    I think the only way to insert him in the movie again is to make him Terminator's designer. Old engineer that creates a killing machine in his own younger image.
    Somebody should pay me for my awesome idea. Oh, wait...

  • Earl Richards says:

    The Terminator should produce a movie about himself saving battered women from domestic violence situations.
