I’ll be the last person to invest in any upheaval between filmmakers as much as those keen on what sci-fi auteur James Cameron has to say this week pertaining to Wonder Woman – except that I absolutely had fun seeing it this summer and I’m looking forward to the sequel. For this, we turn to more pertinent news regarding the current progress he’s now making with director Tim Miller on the future of the forthcoming Terminator trilogy finale. Cameron is currently at the helm for a slate of Avatar sequels through 2025 but is also assisting Miller for the ambitious new Terminator trilogy starring actor Arnold Schwarzenegger whose title portrayal of the time-traveling cyborg killing machine from the future made him a household name between 1984 and 1991 with The Terminator and Terminator 2: Judgement Day.

Arnold Backs Out Of THE TOXIC AVENGER Reboot

Lee B. Golden III

Back in May it was reported that action star Arnold Schwarzenegger would be appearing in the currently developing theatrical reboot of The Toxic Avenger, from director Steve Pink. The revision of the 1980’s undergrond cult cinema classic would have seen Schwarzenegger take on the role of “The Exterminator”, a character who trains the grotesque looking hero to use his powers for good. On Friday however, blockbuster movie fan site Expendables Premiere forwarded an updated conversation from WeGotThisCovered.com detailing some interesting dialogue regarding Schwarzenegger‘s newly publicized departure, as depicted in the following exchange: “WGTC: I love that Arnold Schwarzenegger has committed to [The Toxic Avenger] remake and wants to be in it… Lloyd Kaufman: Well no, he unsigned. He signed and apparently unsigned. I’m not sure what went down, I’m not really privi’ed, but yes, it was announced in every newspaper, there are photos of Arnold Schwarzenegger holding up a poster of The […]

A New Terminator Trilogy Is In The Works, Schwarzenegger To Return

Lee B. Golden III

I personally never thought that the Terminator franchise would get a reboot, particularly considering how epic the orginally story was from the beginning. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised though, considering that we are in an age of remakes and reboots. And now that the very franchise that helped boost director James Cameron’s career back in 1984 is back in the headlines with a new press release courtesy of Paramount Pictures, I wouldn’t be surprised if Avatar gets rebooted. Not to sound cynical or anything, particularly since I support good movies in general, whether they are reboots or not. However, it is a bit awkward that we never really see the end of the war between John Connor and the Human Resistance, and the Terminators hell bent on eliminating all humanity, especially after the events in Terminator: Salvation, which I enjoyed (I sort of thought it was a reboot already).
