I wonder if the Terminator:Dark Fate would have done better at the box office if Dwayne "the Rock" Johnson had portrayed the Rev9.

@WilliamCipher - I can't help but to think it would have helped a lot...he is a big name actor who figuratively has inherited Arnold Schwarzenegger's mantle as the muscle bound action star... so this would have been a somewhat symbolic passing of the torch...and the Rock has a huge social media following.

@WilliamCipher - Don't get me wrong...I loved the film more than most other people. I thought that Gabriel Luna and Mackenzie Davis were both great. But you could have billed it as the older model in the form of Schwarzenegger taking on this generation's version of him in the Rock. Then going forward the Rock would be the model they would fight given the end of Skynet.

I don't really like the comedic angle to the Rock. It seems like that makes him a one note actor. I have never gotten through the first Jumanji as a result.

@Forthas - Wow, that's really surprising. I have to agree with Robin Williams daughter there.

Great article. Thanks for linking it.

@L0RDbuckethead - This article confused me. I am curious as to why they chose to do it. Its not like people won't know that Dean is dead. It seems like they think people would watch it out of curiosity which did not work for Will Smith in Gemini Man.

@Forthas - Money, probably. It mentions that the filmmakers had to negotiate for awhile with his family's estate to use his likeness, so maybe the director has some sort of connection with Dean.

He's probably just doing it to 1) "break new ground" and 2) use the aura of James Dean's likeness to pique curiosity enough to sell a shit ton of tickets.

It's a weird situation for sure though. I'm really surprised Dean's family were okay with it. That's where the real story is, not the movie.

I’m not expecting much from this sequel, I’ll settle for just being a fun time.
