The Terminator spin-off features the British actress taking over a role previously played by a musclebound Linda Hamilton in the franchise's first two movies.
A spokesman for an online fan group blasted the new television show for its visual approach to Sarah Connor. Kym Lambert told The Observer: "We were very upset to find out that a very thin and non-athletic actress had been chosen... to play a role that we as physical feminists found so inspiring."
However, the programme's executive producer James Middleton explained: "It's two years after the events of Terminator 2 and it's reasonable to posit that she hasn't felt the need to work out five hours a day."
"In any case," he continued, "it's small to focus on biceps when Lena is doing some incredible acting."
