The “Terminator” franchise has been DOA for many fans ever since 2003's "T3: The Rise of the Machines." However, it was the last two films of the franchise, “Terminator: Salvation” and “Terminator: Genisys,” that destroyed the series for good. Or so we thought. The only way we could possibly hop back on-board was if James Cameron, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Linda Hamilton would make their return. Well, that is exactly what's happening for Terminator 6. Yes, Hamilton, Arnie and Cameron, as producer, are coming back for this latest chapter. “Deadpool” helmer Tim Miller will be directing what Cameron has called the “continuation of the story from ‘Terminator 1’ and ‘Terminator 2,’ Cameron further elaborated, “And we’re pretending the other films were a bad dream. Or an alternate timeline, which is permissible in our multi-verse.”
The major surprise in all of this? Cameron luring back Hamilton, the main star of his two directed films in the franchise, and, gulp, his ex-wife. “Jim was fucking terrified,” Miller jokes. “I was,” Cameron confirms. “It took me a week just to get up the nerve. No, that’s not true. Linda and I have a great relationship. We’ve stayed friends through the thick and thin of it all. And she is the mother of my eldest daughter. So I called her up, and I said: ‘Look, we could rest on our laurels. It’s ours to lose, in a sense. We created this thing several decades ago. But, here’s what can be really cool. You can come back and show everybody how it’s done.’ Because in my mind, it hasn’t been done a whole lot since the way she did it back in ’91.”
Produced by James Cameron, the film releases November 1.
