Paramount’s ‘Terminator: Genesis’ begins shooting next month with Jai Courtney (‘A Good Day to Die Hard’) and the gorgeous Emilia Clarke (‘Game of Thrones’) lined up for leading roles. Arnold Schwarzenegger will also be back as he promised, and shared some thoughts about his appearance. “The last time when they did the Terminator, it was when I was Governor and so I couldn’t be in that movie but now I’m back again and they are very excited about having me in the film…The script is fantastic so I’m really looking forward to this film.” In addition to the comments MovieHole have unveiled some potential plot details as well. ‘Thor: The Dark World’ director Alan Taylor is set to helm the project. Head below and be warned of spoilers.
“Firstly we will indeed be revisiting the events of the original 1984 film again. The ‘Terminator’ from the future will arrive on earth, attack some punks (keen to see who they get to play ‘Bill Paxton’), and then slaughter his way through a bunch of Sarah Connors’ – until he finds the correct target. And all the characters that appeared in the Cameron original, like Detective Hal Vukovich (played by Lance Henriksen in the original), Lieutenant Ed Traxler (played by Paul Winfield way back when), Sarah’s roomie Ginger (Bess Motta in the ’84 film) and, yep, even Pugsley the Iguana, return. So, yep, we’ll likely get to see Schwarzenegger back in the leather jacket and cool sunglasses he wore in the original. And, of course, Kyle Reese (Courtney) volunteers to go back to 1984 and save Sarah – just as he did first time around. But don’t expect everything to work out like it did in the original.. something is going to play out different.”
‘Terminator: Genesis’ is set to hit theatres on 1 July 2015.
