More Layers Unveiled on "Terminator 4"

As everything is being prepared for "Terminator Salvation" to bring it up to the surface, the flick's co-writer Michael Ferris has eagerly revealed to Entertainment Weekly several tidbits about the projects, which is expected to come out in 2008.

Answering people's speculations on the return of Arnold Schwarzenegger in this fourth installment of the franchise, Ferris openly stated that the star will not make any appearance this time. "'Terminator 3' kind of closed the book on Schwarzenegger, as did his gubernatorial career," so he remarked.

While it has been confirmed that producer Gale Anne Hurd, who worked on the first three films, is not involved in the picture, Ferris eagerly gave a slight hint of the movie plot points, saying that moviegoers "will learn about Skynet and what that postapolyptic future is like."
