Christian Bale later stated that when he was approached for the film, he expressed the same concerns to director McG that the Terminator fan-base was expressing about him taking over the franchise. Bale told him that "nothing in your (McG) filmography suggests that you have what it takes to do this movie properly." McG ultimately convinced Bale to give him a chance, so he could "evolve" as a director. As of 2014, Bale admitted that the film "didn't work", insinuating that it was ultimately McG who blew it. He also stated that he would never work with McG ever again, although he wished him well. However, in an 2018 interview, he blamed script problems for the film's inability to reinvigorate the franchise. According to Bale, writer Jonathan Nolan was asked to rewrite the script and had conceived a "wonderful" story, but due to the writer's strike, he was called away to a prior commitment, and was unable to implement most of his ideas. Nolan therefore remained uncredited for the finished film.
