Summer Glau

The Sarah Connor Chronicles (Fox)

Word is the Fox execs are very happy with this pilot that follows Sarah Connor and her son John from the Terminator movies as she fights to save the world from those evil machines.

Even better? Sarah Connor is played by Lena Headey of Imagine Me & You, and Summer Glau (from Joss Whedon’s Firefly) plays the role of Cameron, a fellow student at 15-year-old John’s high school.

The buzz says this is one pilot that will surely be picked up for a series.

Here’s Headey with Thomas Dekker, who plays John Connor.
