Linda Hamilton Off The Grid, Terminator ReQuel?

Man did Terminator: Genisys suck.  I think most can agree that that movie was pretty much as low as it gets. But the franchise has been missing more than James Cameron.  We haven’t seen Michael Biehn or Linda Hamilton and it makes you wonder, what happened to Linda Hamilton in particular?

TheTerminatorFans have a great and extensive article on this, here is a selection;

4. Linda recently sold her home and relocated, where to is her business of course but has been pretty uncontactable since.

5. Whispers of a Linda Hamilton return to Terminator Genisys sequels was apparently breezing through corridors of Paramount Pictures a while back (we didn’t report it as we needed more confirmation to feel confident about running such a story)… but with Terminator Genisys being a non-starter- bringing Linda back in anything but a sequel to T2 would just be an utter mess… especially if it was set on the idiotic timeline and PG-13 model of Genisys,- it would probably have resulted in nothing more than an empty glorified cameo fans would not want. Think about old original Spock passing the reigns down to Skydance Star Trek reboot Spock and you’re close to understanding the info we obtained and original possible theatrical barf moment plans for the originally planned Genisys trilogy. Reboot Sarah Connor meets the Real Sarah Connor or other stupid scenarios are not wanted AT ALL.

6. Linda’s lack of appearances is nothing to do with ill health and reportedly she IS fit and well.

7. Linda although semi-retired still does some work, she is actually set to star in a science-fiction thriller titled ‘Curvature‘ something we will definitely be keeping an eye out for.

8. Linda Hamilton is open to a Terminator return but she has never been presented with a script worthy enough to validate the return of Sarah Connor.

You can check their full exclusive article here.  They also discuss the idea of a requel, a term of growing popularity.  In short, a new Terminator 3, the one we waited so long for.  It doesn’t seem far fetched because right now at Fox, Aliens is getting its own requel.  Sarah Connor dead?  Well, no-one told Hicks that he’s dead.

So, it’s an interesting discussion.  And I’m glad Linda Hamilton didn’t show up, visually at least, in any of these crappy sequels.
