A remake in the offing - slightly older news but if Arnie is now signed up for Termiantor 4 and True Lies 2 that would suggest he isn't going for relection and so might be free for this (not that I think that would be a good idea though).

The remake of Westworld is now a go. Schwartznegger´s rep. insist he´s not involved with the project at this point. But if he decides to not seek re-election next year, he might be in it.
The film will be produced by Jerry Weintraub (Warner Bros), The Cell director Tarsem Singh will helm Westworld.
There is no screenplay or writer yet attached to the remake.
The original 1973 Westworld was written and directed by Jurassic Park creator Michael Crichton. The film is about a amusement park for rich vacationers. The park provides its customers a way to live out their fantasies through the use of robots that provide anything they want. Two of the vacationers choose a wild west adventure. However, after a computer breakdown, they find that they are now being stalked by a rogue robot gun-slinger.
However, in the remake Schwarzenegger was not set to play the Yul Brynner role of the robotic gunfighter, but one of the park guests.
