As I'm sure you will have heard by now, Christian Bale will star as John Connor in the next batch of Terminator films, with a trilogy apparently in the pipeline.
The team linked to the agreement is The Halcyon Company, headed up by co-CEOs Derek Anderson and Victor Kubicek, a previously unknown force within the industry who have certainly decided to dive in, all guns blazing.
Back in May 2007, Halcyon secured the rights to the entire Terminator franchise, including all merchandising - and even some revenues still being gathered from Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines.
Adding even more kudos to their relatively unknown currency, Halcyon have recently secured the highly-coveted first-look rights to the works of science fiction legend, the novelist Philip K. Dick.
Through this unprecedented agreement, Halcyon will have the first option to
develop in conjunction with Electric Shepherd for film adaptations, as well as
television and other media projects, based on Dick's vast body of works.
The first of the films will be distributed by Warner Bros, in 2009, under the title Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins.
