The Terminator: Dark Fate panel has just gotten underway in San Diego, and we already have a pretty major piece of news as producer James Cameron has just confirmed Edward Furlong will indeed reprise the role of John Connor.

He joins fellow Terminator 2: Judgment Day co-stars Linda Hamilton and Arnold Schwarzenegger, who will also reprise their roles from the 1991 blockbuster, and a new cast consisting of Mackenzie Davis, Natalia Reyes, Gabriel Luna and Diego Boneta.

Considering the teaser trailer seemed to imply that John Connor wouldn't have much of a role to play or may even have perished prior to the events of Dark Fate, Furlong's presence certainly adds another layer of intrigue to the highly anticipated Judgment Day follow-up.

On another note, director Tim Miller has also confirmed the film will definitely be Rated R. "It was because the fans demanded it in a way. I had a whole other plan, but the thing is, the DNA of Terminator is an R rated [frick]ing movie."

Stay tuned for more Terminator and SDCC coverage!

@MexCowboyNation - Not bad, not bad. That photo above was more my reaction to this film being made

MexCowboyNation - 7/18/2019, 12:47 PM

@SpideyPuffsMJ - Man, I just hope the movie good.

Finding out they wanted you back:

knocturnalzen10 - 7/18/2019, 11:43 AM

@L0RDbuckethead - oh my lanta .... he's been thru it ........

Feralwookiee - 7/18/2019, 11:56 AM

@L0RDbuckethead - I don't know who's had a rougher go off it; Furlong or little Ani!

LongMayHeReign - 7/18/2019, 12:11 PM

@Feralwookiee - Probably Ani, Furlong wasn't hated by fans in the only film he was ever in. At least to my knowledge.

toylled - 7/18/2019, 12:12 PM

@L0RDbuckethead - Christ he looks like an alien who's taken over human skin. MIB style.

Origame - 7/18/2019, 12:12 PM

@Feralwookiee - little ani definitely. At least furlong didnt have to deal with the wrath of star wars fans (but no seriously they were brutal)

Nasseal82isback - 7/18/2019, 12:15 PM

@L0RDbuckethead -

First sentence of John in the movie..."come with me if you want to east"

tylerzero - 7/18/2019, 12:16 PM

@LongMayHeReign - Somewhat coincidentally, Ani was in Jingle All the Way with Arnold.

Feralwookiee - 7/18/2019, 12:18 PM

@Origame - Yeah. I've read he had a pretty brutal childhood with constant taunting for his role in TPM. He's had drug and alcohol problems, and a lot of run ins with the law. Unfortunately, this seems to be quite common with a lot of these child actors.

Feralwookiee - 7/18/2019, 12:26 PM

@LongMayHeReign - Jake Lloyd was in a few other movies, like Jingle All the Way, but he basically disappeared after TPM.

Did shit just get real?

HeavyMetal4Life - 7/18/2019, 11:46 AM

@THEDARKKNIGHT1939 - I think so

@BlackBeltJones - Steve Harvey is the Steven A Smith of talk show hosts.

GhostDog - 7/18/2019, 12:56 PM

@MexCowboyNation - this very true lol

DwightKGroot - 7/18/2019, 11:49 AM

AAAAHAHHAAHAHHAHAAHHAHAA

Stop it. Dont ruin my childhood anymore. GOT made me upset enough this year please.

Ha1frican - 7/18/2019, 11:50 AM

Well it makes sense if you bring back Sarah then he’s cannon, I bet he gets killed in the beginning. I think they successfully changed the timeline in T2 but Skynet is inevitable and now the savior is whoever they are protecting now
