The Terminator Reunion Panel took place on August the 18th at Silicon Valley Comic-Con 2019, in San Jose, where stars from three generations of Terminator movies (The Terminator, Terminator 2: Judgment Day and Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines) were in attendance to discuss the movies and answer some audience questions.

Present for the Panel were Edward Furlong (John Connor T2), Robert Patrick (T-1000 T2), Kristanna Loken (T-X T3), Michael Biehn (Kyle Reese T1 – deleted scene T2), Jenette Goldstein (Janelle T2) and Danny Cooksey (Tim T2).
Once the floor was opened up for audience members to ask questions of the Terminator stars – the subject of Edward Furlong’s role as John Connor in Terminator: Dark Fate quickly arose.
Transcribed by TheTerminatorFans.com:
Edward, I’ve got a question about Terminator: Dark Fate – so excited that you’re coming back, it’s fantastic.
SVCC Audience Member
Thank you.
Edward Furlong
What can you reveal about your, uh, your coming back, is it maybe only gonna be CG likeness or are you, yourself, too gonna be in it?
SVCC Audience Member
I’m not allowed to say anything, *laughter* um but yeah, um but uh, yeah man, I mean it’s a small role but it’s … you know, I’m in there man, I’m in there.
Edward Furlong
So, what was it like to find out that you were going to be a part of this?
Host, Clare Kramer
Like a blessing man. I was very excited you know, like really uh, yeah I was trying to turn my life around at that point – so I mean it was uh, it was kinda a good call to get, you know? It kinda felt like a gift from all that you know, plus I was supposed to do the other Terminator but I done fucked that shit up… *laughter*
Edward Furlong
Eddie later stated of his role in T:DF:
I’m glad to be back on it, I’m really really happy to be doing it.
Edward Furlong
Eddie sounds somewhat skittish about confirming or denying the capacity of his involvement in Terminator: Dark Fate (NDA’s have that effect) but what he did say seems very suggestive of a limited role.
Could this simply be yet another indication of the leaks being true? Is Eddie just a young John Connor digital likeness being mapped onto Jude Collie for an ill-fated trip to a Guatemalan bar?
Regardless of whether or not Eddie truly is back as John Connor in Terminator: Dark Fate – it’s great to hear that he’s doing well and staying focused on his recovery. We wish him the best of luck.
Do you think Eddie has a bigger role in the new movie than he’s suggesting?
