New TERMINATOR GENYSIS Stills Released; Arnold Schwarzenegger Reveals New Plot Details
Three new action-packed stills have been officially released from Alan Taylor's (Thor: The Dark World) Terminator Genisys, and they offer up a new look at the aged T-800 and the war raging on in the future. Arnold Schwarzenegger reveals a few new details about the reboot/sequel...
We know that the timeline Kyle Reese travels back to in Terminator Genisys will be a lot different to the one featured in The Terminator, but the recently released trailer for the movie did little to clear up what exactly is going on! Talking to Empire Online, star Arnold Schwarzenegger (who returns as an aged T-800) revealed: "The story has changed, so I am like a combination of the characters who you have seen in the past. He is a powerful and potentially evil kind of machine that can be very destructive if I see that a there is danger from me or for the victory against the machines. I can switch over to being the protector of Sarah Connor. It depends where we are in this storyline."
The beginning of Terminator: Genisys, the first of three planned films that Paramount hopes will relaunch the beloved sci-fi franchise, is set in 2029, when the Future War is raging and a group of human rebels has the evil artificial-intelligence system Skynet on the ropes. John Connor (Dawn of the Planet of the Apes’ Jason Clarke) is the leader of the resistance, and Kyle Reese (Divergent‘s Jai Courtney) is his loyal soldier, raised in the ruins of post apocalyptic California. As in the original film, Connor sends Reese back to 1984 to save Connor’s mother, Sarah (Game of Thrones‘ Emilia Clarke), from a Terminator programmed to kill her so that she won’t ever give birth to John. But what Reese finds on the other side is nothing like he expected.
Starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jason Clarke, Jai Courtney, Emilia Clarke, Matt Smith, Byung-hun Lee, Courtney B. Vance, and J.K. Simmons, Terminator Genisys is set to be released on July 1st.
