Arnold Schwarzenegger confirms ‘Terminator Genesis’ to film next month, script is ‘fantastic’
The Terminator franchise is just another big film project set to get the big Hollywood reboot but star Arnold Schwarzenegger will make his proverbial appearance.
Speaking to TheArnoldFans, Schwarzenegger spoke about the film Terminator: Genesis, confirming the production will start next month.
“We start filming in the middle or in the end of April and it will be a four or four-and-a-half month long shoot. We will be filming it in New Orleans with some of it in San Francisco and maybe a little of it in LA but most of it will be done in New Orleans.”
The True Lies star seems excited about being a part of the new film.
“I’m really looking forward to that because as you know, the last time when they did the Terminator, it was when I was Governor and so I couldn’t be in that movie but now I’m back again and they are very excited about having me in the film. And David Ellison, who has produced all the big movies lately, has plenty of money to do it well. He’s in partnership with Paramount Pictures who are going to release the movie through their distribution.”
No real details here, but Arnold praises the material.
“I’m really looking forward to that and it’s going to come out on July 4th weekend in 2015. The movie preparation is going well. The script is fantastic so I’m really looking forward to this film.”
Terminator: Genesis is being directed by Thor: The Dark World director Alan Taylor with Emilia Clarke and Jason Clarke signing up to play Sarah and John Connor. Jai Courtney will play Kyle Reese.
The film is slated to be released on July 1, 2015.
