Terminator Genisys is due out this summer and now a second trailer has been released.
Arnold Schwarzenegger (right, sort-of) is back!… in his original role, which was a T-800 Terminator. IMDB just lists him as “The Terminator”, while fitness-trainer-to-the-stars Aaron V. Williamson is listed as “T-800”. The reason for that, in a hastily-deleted tweet from the latter, is that Williamson is playing a younger T-800.
Other cast members cast include Jai Courtney (best known for the god-awful
A Good Day To Die Hard) as Kyle Reese, Jason Clarke (Malcolm in Dawn of the Planet of the Apes) as John Connor, British actress Emilia Clarke (no relation) playing Sarah Connor, John’s mother – but Ms Clarke is almost 20 years younger, Byung-hun Lee (Storm Shadow in the terrible G.I. Joe: Retalliation), Courtney B. Vance (ER, FlashForward, Revenge) as Miles Dyson, an as-yet-unnamed character for Matt Smith (Doctor Who) and it’s directed by Alan Taylor (Thor: The Dark World and Game of Thrones).
After finding himself in a new time-line, Kyle Reese teams up with John Connor’s mother Sarah and an aging terminator to try and stop the one thing that the future fears, “Judgement Day”. In addition, Sandrine Holt (House of Cards), turns up as Detective Cheung to “arrest Kyle and Sarah when they arrive in 2017.”
Terminator Genisys is out on July 3rd 2015, and there’s new stuff in this trailer which we haven’t seen yet, but I do feel like we’re getting too much, and that there’ll be nothing left for when it opens in the cinema in three months time!
