Possible plot spoiler?

Recently there has been a lot of news about Sam Worthington taking a major role in the forthcoming Terminator movie as Marcus, apparently one of the major players in the human resistance. However, I recently came across the following on hollywood.com:
"HOLLYWOOD - Action star-turned-California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger will not be reprising his famous role as the Terminator in the forthcoming movie sequel - he has been replaced by young Australian actor Sam Worthington."

So this means that either (a)
The article is wrong and should have said that Worthington playing Marcus, or (b) a great big plot twist has been exposed in that one of the leaders of the resistance turns out to be a fully paid up card-holding Terminator!

Sam Worthington cast in Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins

Australian actor Sam Worthington has been cast in Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins after Cameron recommended the young star to director McG after working with him closely on Avatar.

Worthington joins Christian Bale, who plays John Connor, and will play the role of Marcus, a central character in the new movies.
