The Internet is abuzz with rumors that Terminator 4 is finally moving ahead with new talent both in front of and behind the camera.. The rumors that have been circulating in the past couple of days are saying that McG is in talks to direct Terminator 4 and that Vin Diesel has been having meetings about taking the role of the titular killer robot, now that Arnold Schwarzenegger’s political role has taken him out of the world of acting - and we use that word in the most generous sense..

McG, real name Joseph McGinty Nichol, has previously worked on a number of TV series and films, including last year’s We Are Marshall and TV show Supernatural..

Diesel, who earlier this week was reported to be in talks for 2 Fast 4 U, might be all about the ‘ four - play ‘ in 2008 it seems..

Now, Diesel has already been announced to appear in 2 Fast 4 U, so is he planning to do both? T4 and 2F4U are both planned as pre - strike projects, so he’d have to get both in the bag by the end of June - a big ask for two effects movies that haven’t started shooting yet..

Diesel would appear to be a perfect fit for the role of the cyborg with a heart, boasting as he does a hulking physique and a predilection for monosyllabic, low - speed, and occasionally indistinct vocal delivery..

So what do you think about Vin as the new Terminator?
