In fact, filming has not yet begun.

Sarah Connor is coming to save the world AGAIN! I’M SO EXCITED!!!! Yeah, I know she won’t be playing that character, but still. I have a Sarah Connor tattoo on my arm, so… I’m a ‘fan’.

I thought they weren’t going to cast any new characters, but I guess that changed. So there’s a spark of hope that maybe they’ll bring Eddie back.
