Emilia Clarke and Brie Larson are said to still in the mix to play of a young Sarah Connor in the upcoming  Terminator 5. says Deadline.

The goal is said to be to cast the Sarah Connor role before locking down the John Connor and Kyle Reese roles.  Garrett Hedlund Tom Hardy and Boyd Holbrook ("The Host") are said to be up for John.

Arnold Schwarzenegger is due to return while cohorts Linda Hamilton and Michael Biehn have been rumored to be involved as well.

No story details have been offered but we do know that the new pic is the chapter of a stand alone trilogy. Laeta Kalogridis and Patrick Lussier wrote the script from which "Thor: The Dark World" director Alan Taylor  is all but set to call action

Clarke is said to currently be the front runner, and has had experience working with Taylor on the cable drama "Game of Thrones".
