Terminator Genisys was a weird movie. While it served as a reboot of sorts for the franchise, it also tied into the previous movies and made some controversial changes, including having John Connor return as a T-3000 Terminator. Seeing the hero become a cyborg was obviously a shock and not one fans appreciated, so it's easy to see why the franchise is now going to be rebooted by director Tim Miller.
As a result, a Terminator Genisys sequel is never going to happen but Jason Clarke has revealed in a new interview that the follow-up would have delved into how John ended up becoming the T-3000.
"What I remember was that second one was going to be about John’s journey after he was taken by Skynet…like going down to what he became; half machine, half man," the actor revealed. "That’s where the second one was going to start, and that’s about all I knew." So, we obviously would have spent some time in the future, a setting that Terminator Salvation also delved into with mixed success.
How Connor would have then factored into the story from there is hard to say but it would have definitely been interesting seeing where the Terminator Genisys franchise would have gone. What do you guys think? As always, be sure to let us know your thoughts in the comments section down below.
