Sam Worthington will star in Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins, based on a recommendation from franchise creator James Cameron, who just helmed the Australian actor in Avatar, Variety reported.
McG is helming Terminator Salvation, whose plot twists and turns are being kept under tight wraps. Worthington will reportedly play the role of Marcus, a central figure in a three-picture arc that begins after Skynet has destroyed much of humanity in a nuclear holocaust. A group of survivors led by John Connor (Christian Bale) struggles to keep the machines from finishing the job.
Sources told the trade paper that McG spoke on the phone recently with Cameron, who was in New Zealand working on Avatar. It was during that chat that he recommended Worthington, who in Avatar plays a paraplegic war veteran from Earth who's brought to another planet inhabited by a race of humanoids at odds with Earth's inhabitants.
