Arnold Schwarzenegger has confirmed he will appear in the next Terminator movie, although he will not film any new material.

The Californian governor has reportedly agreed that the movie production company can use old images of him, which they will alter digitally.

"We'll be using computer altered stock images of Arnold," producer Derek Anderson has confirmed. "That way we can span his entire career, from the frightening '80s era Terminator to the ice cool T2 version."

The fourth film in the series is scheduled for release in 2009.
