The role of John Connor was fatal in the fate of two young performers. Will the third one experience another curse?
In the “Terminator 2” movie, the role of young John Connor, the future leader of the revolt against robots, was played by young Edward Furlong. Later, the boy had some other memorable roles, including the “American History X” movie, but then his career went down. These days, Eddie is brought to trial once again.
Furlong can be sentenced to 4 years in prison for violating the court injunction that prohibits approaching his ex-girlfriend. Having seen the raging actor, some woman decided to call the police, but he grabbed her camera, a mobile phone and a laptop and broke all this expensive equipment into pieces. Furlong was arrested and released soon before the trial on the bail of $100,000.
Now, he is accused of violating three articles of the law, and if the court decides that Eddie is guilty, the actor can be sent to jail for 4 years. During the imprisonment, Edward Furlong will have enough time to restore the body after the years of alcohol and drug abuse, which has ruined his career in cinematography that once started so brilliantly.
Meanwhile, it has been reported that actor Nick Stahl, who played John Connor in “Terminator 3” was forcibly sent to a psychiatric clinic, located in Los Angeles. The reasons for this misfortune are not reported, but it has been informed that he may suffer from a mental illness that makes him dangerous to society.
Nick Stahl also has a rich history of drug and alcohol abuse, which triggered the collapse of his career. Now, the “third John Connor “, British actor Christian Bale is in the limelight. Let us hope that he will avoid the curse of the role.
