We Have a New Sarah Connor!

by | November 8, 2006 | Comments

Remember when we told you that some folks were turning the "Terminator" series into a weekly TV show? Well, they still are — and they hired a really attractive actress to play Sarah Connor.

From Variety: "Lena Headey has landed the plum leading role in the Fox pilot "The Sarah Connor Chronicles." Project, from Warner Bros. TV, continues the "Terminator" movie franchise storyline by focusing on Sarah and her son John, as they fight attackers from the future in present-day Los Angeles. Headey takes over the role made famous by Linda Hamilton in the first two "Terminator" films."

You’d probably recognize Ms. Headey from her roles in "Imagine Me & You," "The Cave," "The Brothers Grimm," "Ripley’s Game," and next year’s "300."

The initial "Chronicles" will come from director David Nutter and screenwriter Josh Friedman.
