Several film projects in the works will have to cope without star Arnold Schwarzenegger, who has announced that he will not make any films in the near future so he can concentrate on his new role as governor of California.
According to syndicated columnists Marilyn Beck and Stacy Janel Smith, writer and director John Milius is planning on going forward with the upcoming sequel King Conan: Crown of Iron, with a new actor in the lead role. A source close to the project said that the film will benefit from the recasting, which will eliminate Schwarzenegger's customarily high salary from the budget and make it easier insure the production in exotic locales. Similarly, Warner Brothers is considering a fourth installment in the Terminator franchise sans Schwarzenegger, according to the Dark Horizons Web site. A source told the site that the governor-elect has recommended wrestler-turned-action-star The Rock to replace him should there be a Terminator 4. ________________________________ Changes to your subscription (unsubs, nomail, digest) can be made by going to http://sandboxmail.net/mailman/listinfo/sndbox_sandboxmail.net
