Terminator Salvation star Christian Bale has admitted he turned down the first role of a robot he was offered on the film.
Christian, 35, plays the part of John Connor in the flick but he wasn’t offered that role initially.
The Batman star was originally asked to play the part of a killer robot but he turned it down and said he wanted to play John Connor. He later agreed to join the film when the part of John Connor was written in to the script.
He said: “The script wasn’t good enough when I first read it.” He added: “It was just: ‘What the hell’s the point in making another Terminator movie?’
“At first, the idea of doing another one didn’t seem to be smart to me. But reviving the Batman movies didn’t seem smart either.
“I came to believe there were some potentially good stories here and I’d like to see the Terminator revived.”
