BBC News have reported that Christian Bale has signed to play Rebel leader John Connor in three sequels to "The Terminator" franchise, which begins with Terminiator Salvation: The Future Begins which has already began shooting.

Already starring in another big movie franchise Batman Bales latest work in The Dark Knight will be in cinemas on July 18.

"He's really an actor's actor, so we're very proud," said Victor Kubicek of film company Halcyon.

"Christian was our first choice and he's a big fan of The Terminator, so we're very lucky," Kubicek told the BBC at the Cannes Film Festival.

"But with Batman he's already done the whole franchise thing, so we weren't sure he'd respond."

Luckily, said Kubicek's business partner Derek Anderson, "he read the script and he loved it, so he's signed on for all three."
