‘Terminator Salvation’ director McG is one of the more, uh, enthustiastic people you’ll ever meet and he has perhaps the most action-intense film of 2009 with his revival of the classic time-travel-and-killer-robot franchise. Those are some good reasons to come by the Apple Store on the Third Street Promenade in Santa Monica at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, but here’s an even better one: He’s bringing some finished footage from the film that doesn’t hit theaters until May 21.

I’ll be there interviewing him on stage and then moderating some questions from the audience. Hope to see some of you Hero Complex readers there.
