X-bodybuilder penned to portray Arnold's Terminator

Just saw this article about former Austrian bodybuilder Roland Kickinger being cast as the original Terminator that John Connor comes across in the next year's "Terminator: Salvation". Everything about him is a perfect choice; not only his former profession and the fact that he's from Austria, but he bears a striking resemblance to Arnold Schwarzenegger, and in fact portrayed him in the 2005 made for TV movie, "Run, Arnold, Run". Click on the photo to go to the article on Movieweb.com.

Much as some people are a little weary of McG in the director's chair, the fact that he is a huge, very respectful fan of the first two movies says a lot. I'll absolutely ride with this until I see otherwise. There is a big preview for "Terminator: Salvation" at Comic-Con this year and I can't wait to see what they roll out!

Here's another pic showing off his resemblance to Arnold. Nice!
