Arnold Will Be in Terminator 6 “To Some Extent”!
In other news, James Cameron recently divulged new information on the upcoming Terminator trilogy.
“The question is,” Cameron begins, "has the franchise run its course or can it be freshened up?,” says Cameron. “Can it still have relevance now where so much of our world is catching up to what was science fiction in the first two films. We live in a world of predator drones and surveillance and big data and emergent AI (artificial intelligence)."
Will Arnold be back? According to sources, Cameron responded with “to some extent”. Does this mean Arnold will be on board only to lend his voice as the lead character and be rendered as a CG villain? It is certainly time for Arnold to return as the killer cyborg so if our wish comes true, we’ll get a great audio assault of an Ahnuld accent!
Negotiations are still underway to bring the next trilogy of Terminator films to life.
“So I am in discussions with David Ellison, who is the current rights holder globally for the Terminator franchise and the rights in the US market revert to me under US copyright law in a year and a half so he and I are talking about what we can do. Right now we are leaning toward doing a three-film arc and reinventing it.”
Cameron also spoke of his low to mild-level interest in the latest Terminator films.
“I think it’s fairly widely known that I don’t have a lot of respect for the films that were made later,” Cameron says. “I was supportive at the time in each case for Arnold’s sake because he is a close friend. He has been a mate of mine since 33 years ago so I was always supportive and never too negative. But they didn’t work for me for various reasons.”
