It’s official we are getting a Terminator 6 movie. Well, actually, it’s a a Terminator 3 movie. Yes, this movie is a direct sequel to the brilliant Terminator 2 and will treat all other Terminator movies as if they are in a different timeline. Ouch. According to movieweb James Cameron stated that “This is a continuation of the story from Terminator 1 and Terminator 2. And we're pretending the other films were a bad dream. Or an alternate timeline.” Terminator 6 will take place in 21th century, meaning it will be dealing with modern A.I. concerns.
Also James Cameron won’t be directing the movie, just producing. Tim Miller will direct the movie. Tim Miller has already proven that he can direct excellent action movies with Deadpool.
This movie being a direct sequel to Terminator 2 explains why Sarah Connor is still alive, as we found that Linda Hamilton was cast in the movie. Also, James Cameron needs to stop bashing Wonder Woman if he doesn’t want women audiences giving his movie the stink eye before it even comes out. Also. no word on a John Connor yet.
Of course Arnold Schwarzenegger is back. This is movie seems to play straight into the heavy 80s nostalgia going on in Hollywood right now.
Moreover, in my opinion, all the robot villains failed to be as scary as the T-1000 in Terminator 2. That one gave me nightmares, even though I did watch it when I was really young. This also makes me wonder about the rating of the movie. Terminator and a Terminator 2 were both R-Rated, will a Terminator 6 also be R-Rated when the rest of the franchise has become a PG-13 franchise?
Can James Cameron return Terminator to its days to glory?
The movie is set to come out in 2019.
