Here's the latest news I found: www.joblo.com/arrow/index.php?id=11402"T4 no title? Mar. 11, 2008 Source: ComingSoon.net by: Ammon Gilbert The boys over at ComingSoon.net scored some interesting news this morning. Apparently the fourth film in the TERMINATOR series is now without a title--but don't worry, McG is still on board to direct, as are stars Christian Bale and Sam Worthington. Previously titled TERMINATOR SALVATION: THE FUTURE BEGINS, renaming this entry sounds like a very good idea, as not only is the title long, but it's stupid. Ok, 'stupid' may be somewhat harsh, but it's not a good title to begin with, and if they're truly in the process of renaming the damn thing, then good for them. Considering the story is based in the future during the war with Skynet, you'd figure there'd be plenty of other titles waiting out there, ready to be used. T4: THE AFTERMATH; T4: MAN VS MACHINE; T4: BATTLE OF THE RESISTANCE; T4: WHERE'S ARNOLD?... Oh, the possibilities are endless. To check out the full scoop, click HERE, and get ready for TERMINATOR 4 in theaters everywhere May 22, 2009."

SPOILERS
From Terminatorfiles and they source HollywoodReporter - no idea how reliable they with this sort of thing.
What? Now I'm just confused. Terminators look human a lot earlier in this version I guess (seems unlikely he'd intentionally make friends with a robot, given that they're trying to wipe out humanity).
ETA: Anyone know of a transcript for the interview? I really don't enjoy watching/listening to interviews that much, but I like to know the content.

Huh that's totally confusing - UNLESS they mean that Marcus is actually the human who Skynet ends up modeling Arnie's model on?

I'm very surprised no ones mentioned the most insane news of all-
Another interesting bit of TERMINATOR news has Oscar-winner Paul Haggis (CRASH) in negotiations to do a rewrite on the script (currently credited to John Brancato and Michael Ferris of TERMINATOR 3).
All I can say is GODDAMN!
Great news allround..can't wait till May 22nd 2009

I'm not familiar with Haggis. I looked him up on IMDB, but only know what half the stuff is.
Does he tend to write morally "gray" heroes? Depressing endings? Not a fan of those. I've heard of "The Black Donnellys" but never saw it. I did watch "Due South" but that was a long time ago. And I'm not sure if he was also a writer or just creator on those. Does he have a tendency towards the cynical or the optimistic? Or is he one of those that pretty much writes across the spectrum?
Just trying to get a feel for what kind of movie to expect.

Well he Rebooted Bond into a total Hardass.
So I'm sold on him for just that reason.

Scoop: Terminator 4 Plot Details March 20th, 2008 Terminator fans have been in a mini-uproar since the news broke yesterday that Anton Yelchin had been hired to play a teenage version of Kyle Reese opposite Christian Bale as a 30-year-old John Connor in Terminator 4. At issue is the age difference, which would make Reese more like Connor’s little brother than the best friends the franchise had previously set them up as. Today though we’ve gotten some detailed information from one of our most reliable scoopers on just how this whole Reese/Connor thing is going to work. She’s sent us spot on stuff before, but of course since we have to keep her identity anonymous consider everything here as just rumor. But our scooper confirms that Reese won’t be some bit player in the movie. Instead, he “will be the central character in the films.” Our source compares it to Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen in the Star Wars prequels, saying “Just like the Star Wars prequels when it was the relationship between Anakin and Obi Wan that drove the three films, that’s the concept for the new Terminator films when its between the relationship of Kyle and John, who is really father and son but with the moral dilemma with John knowing what has to be done in order for him to be born.” So maybe there’s a massive age difference between John Connor and Kyle Reese, but it sounds like Reese will still be a huge part of not only this movie, but any future Terminator movies. Those movies by the way, our source says “will also address the terminators and their evolution including the terminators of the first three films.” And somewhat surprising, there may actually be direct connections between the movie and the recently aired Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles TV series. Our source says, “they might connect the TV Series to the original three films as well but that depends if for one Fox decided to continue the series and if the people in charge want to have those plot lines cross over with this new trilogy.” The Sarah Connor Chronicles has been great, and though there’s been no official decision on it yet, all indications are that the series will eventually get a second season. Now maybe there’s even more incentive for Fox to make that second season happen, if they can tie the TV series and the new movie together. Source

At issue is the age difference, which would make Reese more like Connor’s little brother than the best friends the franchise had previously set them up as. I don't get it. John is born in 1985, Kyle is born after Judgment Day. The franchise never set them up to be the same age.

I can't say I like this tweak at all. I know the timeline changes, but at least SCC respects Kyle's age and the like. I personally can't see them as brother's considering how things end up playing out to get us to where we were at the beginning of the original and the impact it has on the series.
Hopefully, they'll rewrite this bit before production.

Indeed John has always been substantially older than Kyle. So this switch to a more Teen Kyle tickles me the wrong way a bit more than I thought it would.

Wonder what genius came up with this particular approach in the development process?
At the TV series, stayed true to form despite slight changes.
