"Terminator: Dark Fate" - New Footage



Take a look at more new footage, plus images from "Deadpool" director Tim Miller's "Terminator: Dark Fate", the first in a trilogy of films, starring Linda Hamilton reprising her role as 'Sarah Connor', Edward Furlong reprising his role as 'John Connor', Arnold Schwarzenegger as the scientist who created the 'T-800' machine in his own image, Mackenzie Davis ("Halt and Catch Fire") as a cyborg-human soldier from the future and Gabriel Luna as 'Terminator Rev 9', in the official sequel to James Cameron's "Terminator 2: Judgment Day", targeting a November 2019 release:


"...27 years after the events of 'Terminator 2: Judgment Day', a new, modified liquid metal 'Terminator' is sent from the future by 'Skynet' in order to terminate 'Dani Ramos'...


"... a hybrid cyborg human, and her friends. 


"'Sarah Connor' comes to their aid, as well as the original Terminator for a fight for the future..."


""The trilogy will have predator drones and actual discussions," said producer Cameron, "on the ethics of having a robot have its own kill decision possibilities. 


"When I became aware of the fact that I could back into a control position on the rights, I started to ask myself artistically, 'Is there anything there? 


"Is there anything to be said that I haven’t already said...


"...and that would even be relevant in the 2020's ? 


"I thought, 'Well, let’s look at that'. I mean, a lot of the things that were science fiction in 'Terminator' are now around us…"


"The 'Terminator' films are all about artificial intelligence. But I would say we're looking at it differently than when I wrote the first story in 1982. 



"That was just your classic 'technology bad, smart computers bad' kind of thing. Nowadays though — it's got to be a much more nuanced perspective.


As for Schwarzenegger’s character, Cameron said "...there could be a reason all the 'Terminators' looked like the same person...


"...based on a man whose 'DNA' was used to create the robot's human appearance. 


"But who was this man, and what was his relationship to 'Skynet'?..."


"I think James Cameron and Tim Miller came up with a concept where they can continue on with the 'T-800' but make a whole new movie," said Schwarzenegger. 


"What they are doing now with this one is basically to just take a few very basic characters...


"...like Linda Hamilton's character and my character, and dismiss everything else. 


"Just move away from all these rules of the timeline and other characters..."
