Arnold Schwarzenegger is not confirmed to appear in 'Terminator Salvation'.

It has been rumoured that the franchise's original star - who is now Governor of California - is set to make an appearance in the forthcoming movie, but director McG insists even he is unaware whether it will happen or not.

He said: "We don't know if Schwarzenegger is in the movie or not; it's not clear. I can say that. "It's a complicated, delicate balancing act as of now. The jury is still out."

However, the filmmaker still intends to use Arnold's character in the new film, even if he declines to make an appearance.

He explained: "This film is largely about Skynet collecting human tissue in the interest of creating lifelike tissue for the T-800, which is the Schwarzenegger character. And if you think about it, we had to go through a lot of lab rats to get to the polio vaccine. Skynet has to go through a lot of human beings to get to that realistic T-800."

Meanwhile, McG is reportedly set to direct a movie adaptation of best-selling rock musical 'Spring Awakening'.

He will work with Steven Sater, who penned the theatre adaptation from Frank Wedekind's 1891 play.

'Spring Awakening' follows a group of teenagers in 19th century Germany as they discover their sexuality.
