London, Apr 2 : Hollywood actor Robert Patrick is gearing up to reprise his role as the evil robot in `Terminator 5'.

Filmmaker McG has been signed up to direct the forthcoming flick called `Terminator Salvation', and he is eyeing Robert for the role of evil robot T-1000.

"Yeah, he talked to me about it. I''m interested. I was listening to him tell me about it. I had no idea that he thought about that," the Daily Express quoted Robert as saying.

"I love McG. He''s a great guy... we saw each other and he talked to me about it, so we''ll see what happens. The sci-fi genre, and specifically that character, is something I''m very proud of. It''s what broke me out big to the world," he added.
