by Erik Davis <http://www.cinematical.com/bloggers/erik-davis/> Mar 2nd 2009 // 5:20PMCinque3000 http://www.blogcdn.com/www.cinematical.com/media/2009/03/patrickterm-%282%29 .jpgWe already brought you a brief recap of the <http://www.moviefone.com/movie/terminator-salvation/31561/main> Terminator Salvation panel at this <http://www.cinematical.com/2009/03/01/2009-wondercon-in-60-seconds/> year's Wondercon, but director McG <http://www.moviefone.com/celebrity/mcg/1258741/main> stuck around to talk shop with a few outlets, including Fearnet <http://www.fearnet.com/news/b14862_wondercon_2009_arnold_t_1000_in_mcgs.htm l> , who chatted up the possibility of Robert <http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001598/> Patrick (aka the T1000 in Terminator 2) returning for the next Terminator film. Well, not only has McG spoken to the actor about making an appearance, but he appears to already have ideas on how to fit a much-older Patrick into the series. He says, "I talk to Robert Patrick with great regularity. It's interesting - I was [thinking of] a through line. I'll bounce it off of you guys: I like the idea in a prospective next picture that you meet Robert Patrick the way he looks today, and he's a scientist that's working on improving cell replication so we can stay healthier and we can cure juvenile diabetes and all these things that once again sound like good ideas -- and once again live as an idealized expression of ourselves. So imagine seeing a sixty-year-old Robert Patrick and knowing, 'Holy shit! That's gonna be the T-1000 - who comes back perfect, lean and the whole thing.' I haven't concluded that, but Robert and I had dinner the other night and talked about it. I made two movies with Robert Patrick, so I like him very much. And now he's very heavily into motorcycle riding. He's a really serious guy." But will they all make a sequel? McG notes, "Let Memorial Day come. If we all get together and sit at a table like this and you guys give me a kick in the ass and say, 'Go make another one,' I'll deliver Bale and we'll get it done." I'm not sure I'm entirely sold on that idea, but it would be interesting to meet the person the T1000 was based on as a human in the future.
