Assuming it’s a larger role, there’s plenty of time to get Furlong in decent shape. A personal trainer and nutritionist can work wonders in a few months. It’s not like he needs to be in Chris Evans/Captain America shape. He just needs t be fit enough to wear an old army surplus jacket.

Kind of cool to have Furlong back. He’s had a lot of issues, but if he can get back in decent enough shape to pull off the role that’s pretty awesome.

New featurette. Some cool footage. Cameron also says in here it's R rated.

Sarah: Metal Mother fucker.
Arnold looks great with the grey hair and goatee. And it looks like in the footage he's a T-800.

I don’t even know what to think. Just fucking kill it already. It stops at 2 and that’s it. I did like 3 and even like Salvation, but gdamn enough is enough. Bring originality, not all these fucking remakes, reboots, reinventions, etc bs...
Eh, I take it back. That featurette looked good and I guess Cameron had some influence, so there’s that...

I hope this turns out to be as good as T1 and T2. T2 was a blast. To imitate that you have to have more than just luck. T2 is a classic.
It's easy to lose faith in this sequel because the special effects on the bad guy looked very rough and out of date, judging from the last trailer that was released. I hope they manage to fix that CGI up and make it as fluid as possible.

Here is the full Terminator panel from Comic Con on Thursday

It's a little long at about 41 minutes, but it's quite entertaining. I know most here won't watch it because of it's length and you're probably at work reading this. But it's really worth a watch.
Tim Miller is very funny and the moderator is very funny too. Everyone from the cast is there.

Re: Terminator: Dark Fate (2019, D: Miller) Schwarzenegger, Hamilton -- Cameron producing
The Terminator reunion didn’t feel complete until producer James Cameron confirmed the return of Edward Furlong as John Connor in the Tim Miller-directed Terminator: Dark Fate, which retcons all sequels except Cameron’s Terminator 2: Judgment Day.
The third film in the trilogy brings Linda Hamilton back as Sarah Connor, so it would be strange to see a continuation of the story without her son, John, who in the key component to everything.
In Cameron’s 1984 The Terminator, Kyle Reese (Michael Biehn) is sent back in time (by John) to protect his mother from the original T-800 (Arnold Schwarzenegger), a machine programmed to kill her before she can give birth to the future leader of the resistance.
Sarah and a teenage John team up in the sequel, Judgment Day, and eventually stop all the future events from coming to fruition. Thus, we never actually see John strap on his boots and go to war with the machines.
This led to a lot of speculation as to what John’s role would be in Dark Fate, arriving in theaters this November. Would we see him as the leader of the same resistance, started in a different future, or maybe we’d see him sending Reese back in some sort of futuristic flashback sequence? The answer is neither.
*SPOILERS*
I have confirmed that early leaked reports were on target and that we won’t be seeing an adult version of Furlong’s John Connor in Dark Fate, at least not in the most recent cut of the film.
My source tells me that yes, Jude Collie was in fact cast to play a young John Connor and that CGI was used to put Furlong’s face on his body. Now, here’s where this becomes news and not a rehash of what you’ve read here on Bloody Disgusting for over the past year – while Furlong isn’t physically in Dark Fate, he does deliver a brand new performance that’s been digitally placed directly onto Collie’s face. So, yes, Furlong is technically in Dark Fate, just not exactly how we all expected.
It’s also important to note that Miller and the cast are preparing for a round of additional photography that could change the current edit as it exists. It’s still possible that they shoot some new sequences that involve an older John Connor, but as of this writing, we’ll be seeing him in CG form.
As a side note, I’m told this new film bleeds James Cameron and is a worthy sequel to Judgment Day. Also, in case you were wondering, Biehn nor Reese are in this film.

For some reason having Furlong back in this makes me more excited than I was previously. It feels like a more complete sequel having the three from T2 back.

I think there's gonna be a child John Connor flashback using cgi. Then present day Furlong as Connor.
The kid John Connor with cgi was known months ago. I doubt they would announce Edward Furlong coming back just for a de aging cgi on a kid. Especially when it was already known.
I assume Furlong will have a small role and Linda Hamilton will have the bigger role.

I remember them saying they couldn't use Carrie Fisher to do the CGI work for Rogue One because of the aging process and changes to her face, but apparently they can turn Edward Furlong into a 12-year old again? Odd.
If he truly only returns for that, pretty lame announcing he's "back" then. It'd be like hyping up Sean Young as being back for Blade Runner 2049 for whatever contributions she made to the CGI version of her character. I have to figure there is more than that.

I feel like there must be more to him coming back than just to have his face CG’d for a flashback scene or whatever. Maybe not, but that’s a pretty lame thing to announce and get people excited about it that’s all it’s really going to be.

So, basically this sounds like just another Terminator sequel post T2?

I don’t know why they can’t actually use him for real. He doesn’t seem to be doing much. Why this extra money for cgi shit. He should look weathered and older. Anything else with this just won’t work.
