Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Jonathan Mostow
Starring: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Claire Danes, Nick Stahl, Kristanna Loken, Earl Boen
The Terminator uses its last fuel cell and sacrifices itself to destroy the T-X. John and Kate go to stop Skynet, but find out that it was software, not hardware and has spread to every computer. The location Kate's dad gave them is actually a fallout shelter to protect them from Judgement Day. Judgement Day occurs due to the fact that the future cannot be prevented but delayed. John eventually becomes the leader of the human resistance...

Answer: He was originally in talks - and by some reports, did appear on set for some period of time. While factual answers are in short supply (for obvious reasons), there appears to be a connection to his drug-use habits. For instance, he was checked into a hospital (LA Cedars Sinai) for what friends feared was a drug overdose in April 2001, and has been in and out of rehab over the years. Chances are the production company was unable or unwilling to get completion insurance.
