Terminator Zero is all set to take us back into the world of Skynet, this time in the form of an anime series. Despite being set in the universe created by the legendary filmmaker James Cameron in 1984, the upcoming Netflix show will present a new take on the popular franchise.
A still from Terminator Zero
Following the renowned Arnold Schwarzenegger 1984 film, Terminator has spawned several movies, series, and video games. However, the franchise has seen a steady decline in its popularity over time with some of the worst films like Genisys and Salvation.
Several fans hoped that the upcoming series might use its classic time-travel trope to give justice to the underwhelming Terminator films in some ways. Unfortunately, such a thing is now impossible as the showrunner revealed that Terminator Zero will not mess with the canon in any way.

James Cameron has directed two Terminator movies: The Terminator (1984) and Terminator 2: Judgement Day (1991). The sci-fi action franchise is one of the oldest and longest-running in Hollywood. Cameron’s movie stars Arnold Schwarzenegger, Michael Biehn, Linda Hamilton, and Paul Winfield.
Recently, in an interview, the Avatar director said that he would think thoroughly before making movies like The Terminator. The director revealed that when he was making the 1984 movie, he realised he knew nothing about guns. However, he further stated that it’s America, and he can just go buy a gun wherever he wants.

Christian Bale is undeniably one of the most respected actors to ever portray the iconic Batman. His collaboration with director Christopher Nolan in 2005’s Batman Begins launched a gritty and now-legendary trilogy that made over $2 billion worldwide (via The Numbers).
Their version of Batman was serious and dark — quite different from the more playful superhero movies at the time. The Dark Knight from their film series is still seen as a super important movie in the superhero world.
Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight
Nolan did an amazing job directing and writing the Batman trilogy, but Bale’s acting as Bruce Wayne/Batman was also a big part of why the film became a huge success.
SUGGESTEDChristian Bale Will Never Play “Despicable” James Bond For a Very Valid Reason But He Can Still be in it as a Villain
Before Batman Begins, Bale was famous for playing intense characters, like Patrick Bateman in American Psycho.

Terminator is an important film when it comes to science fiction in Hollywood. Sarah Connor, through the Terminator franchise, has become one of the most recognizable female science fiction protagonists, only superseded by Ripley from Aliens. A recent theory has come to light, pointing out that Sarah Connor might have lied to her son about who his father was, which was originally ‘revealed’ to be his best friend from the future, Kyle Reese.
Michael Biehn as Kyle Reese in The Terminator
Kyle Reese goes back in time to protect Sarah Connor, whose future son leads the rebellion against the machines and is almost successful in overthrowing Skynet and its mechanical monsters. Sarah tells John that his father is Kyle Reese, but the theory states this must be a lie told by Sarah to motivate John to become the hero of humanity that he is supposed to be.

In November of 1993, writer/director John Lafia (Child’s Play 2) unleashed Cujo Cocaine Bear (great punk band name) upon the world with Man’s Best Friend. In the movie, a Tibetan Mastiff named Max 3000 is released from a genetic research facility by a reporter named Lori (Breakfast Club’s Ally Sheedy) while trying to expose a company for their cruel experiments on animals. We eventually learn that while Max might look like the best boy ever, he has a lot more in common with Wesley Snipes’ Simon Phoenix character from Demolition Man than he does Lassie.
While in the lab’s care, Max has been experimented on and genetically enhanced with the DNA of a slew of dangerous animals. For example, if threatened he can camouflage himself with the colors of your garage and hide there like a chameleon before deciding to pop out and bite your dick off. He has super strength,...

Fox is developing a one-hour drama titled “Borrowed Time,” Variety has learned exclusively.
The series hails from writers and executive producers David Slack, Josh Campbell, and Matt Stuecken. McG is also an executive producer along with Mary Viola and Corey Marsh via Wonderland Sound and Vision. Wonderland is currently under a non-exclusive broadcast direct development deal with Fox.
The official logline for “Borrowed Time” states: “Neuroscientist Mimi Peters is working to extract memories from the human brain. Her technology is too dangerous to test on the living. But after she proves she can peer into the minds of the dead, FBI Agent Casey Harden comes calling. Together, they form an uneasy partnership using her technology to solve his cases.”
The project marks a return to Fox for Slack, who previously co-created the Fox procedural “Apb.” Slack’s other credits include “Law & Order,” “Magnum P.I.,” and “Person of Interest.” Campbell and...

When Arnold Schwarzenegger delivered the now legendary line, "I'll be back," in 1984's "The Terminator," no one could have known how true that statement would prove to be. Arnie was indeed back, and back, and back, and back, and back again, proving that the only thing as relentless as the T-800 is Hollywood's desire to pump out sequel after sequel.
Thankfully, we at least got one classic of the action genre out of it: 1991's "Terminator 2: Judgment Day." After delivering a masterpiece of low-budget sci-fi filmmaking in '84, director James Cameron proved why he's the king of sequels with the 1991 follow-up. "T2" outdid its predecessor in almost every way, blending impeccable action set pieces with an overwhelming sense of doom that made the film linger in the mind long after viewing.

Hollywood has never really accepted that you can’t recapture lightning in a bottle. No matter how context-specific a blockbuster’s success was, you can always count on an executive to insist on making a follow-up even if that doesn’t make sense for the story. That being said, sequels aren’t always doomed to failure, and one of the most famous examples of this is James Cameron’s Terminator 2, a film that refused to do the same thing twice and became just as iconic as the original.
Naturally, Hollywood learned all of the wrong lessons from the success of T2, as most of its sequels would be repetitive cash-grabs simply reiterating on the same tired ideas of fate, time travel and robot assassins. The only real exception to this curse would be 2009’s controversial Terminator Salvation, a post-apocalyptic thriller that genuinely expands on the world of its source...

In World Wrestling Entertainment, the period from July 22, 2008, to March 22, 2014, remains known as the "PG era," owing to how Vince McMahon adjusted the content to achieve a TV-pg rating after the TV-14 fare in the so-called "Attitude" and "Relentless Aggression" eras of the 1990s and early-to-mid 2000s. (via Sportscaster)
WWE had caught up with Hollywood, where a similar wave of chlorine had washed over mainstream cinema and sanitized dozens of projects including "Live Free or Die Hard," "Terminator Salvation," "Hancock," and "Fired Up." These films and many more were stripped of violence, swearing, and sexuality in order for the MPA to grant the studios a PG-13 rating and access to the lucrative teen demographic. Such money-mindedness proved bad enough for the action and comedy genres, but it was arguably even worse for horror filmmakers, who risked self-censorship unless they worked within the thriving "torture porn" fare of "Saw" and "Hostel.

We Terminator fans haven't had an easy time. I first saw "Terminator 2: Judgment Day" when I was about 10 and my dad let me stay up to watch it. Did I pretend not to be absolutely terrified by the image of the exoskeleton peeking through Arnie's torn facial flesh? Maybe. But ever since being gently traumatized by "T2," I have been in love with the franchise.
Depending on who you ask, everything after "T2" has formed a nebulous cloud of mediocrity, where flashes of scenes you may or may not remember sometimes rise to the surface only to recede into the miasma once again, leaving you questioning whether they ever existed. Did Arnie really wear star-shaped shades in "Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines?" Did they really make The Terminator into a suburban Texas dad who ran a curtain business in "Terminator: Dark Fate?"

Terminator Salvation, Terminator Genisys, and Terminator: Dark Fate were all supposed to be the first entry in a new trilogy of Terminator movies. Each time, the trilogy plans had to be scrapped due to disappointing box office. But the Terminator franchise isn’t over yet. Terminator: The Anime Series will be reaching the Netflix streaming service sometime in the near future – and while we look forward to seeing how that’s going to turn out, Terminator Salvation director McG is looking forward to the day when he’ll be able to share his darker cut of the movie.
Speaking with ComicBook.com while doing the press rounds for his new movie Family Switch, which will be available to watch on Netflix later this week, McG said, “We tried hard. On that one, we brought in Jonah Nolan to write it, there was a writers’ strike back then. Brought in Christian Bale,...

While the Redicks will be spearheading production, Brandon and Justin Weber’s Monte Cristo Entertainment along with Corey McGowan’s Lazy Mary Pictures were instrumental in acquiring rights to the book. The Weber Brothers have penned the adaptation and will exec produce alongside McGowan.
A mystery thriller in the vein of Big Little Lies, True Detective, and Gone Girl, Twenty Years Later follows Avery Mason, TV host of American Events, who knows her latest story – a murder mystery laced with sex, tragedy, and betrayal – is ratings gold. With new technology, the New York medical examiner’s office has made its first successful identification of a 9/11 victim in years. The twist: the victim in question, Victoria Ford, had been accused of murder at the time of her death.

Terminator Salvation at least showcased that the brand has the potential to expand the scope of its world. Nevertheless, Terminator: Dark Fate was the nail in the coffin for the franchise.

Some speculate that Brolin was approached for the part that would eventually go to Worthington. In a 2010 interview that Brolin did with Collider for Jonah Hex, Brolin...

De-aging has come a long way, from “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” to “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny” in the last 15 years. While “Benjamin Button” won the VFX Oscar for its trailblazing reverse-aging of Brad Pitt, Harrison Ford’s Indy finale (which premiered this week at the Cannes Film Festival ahead of its June 30 theatrical opening) is already being talked up as an Oscar contender for its breakthrough AI-generated de-aging, making the actor look 40 years younger fighting Nazis in the 25-minute opening flashback.
With David Fincher’s “Benjamin Button,” digital technology caught up with need, and its success spawned a wave of de-aging that fought off the Uncanny Valley with varying degrees of success. This included Patrick Stewart in “X-Men Origins: Wolverine,” Arnold Schwarzenegger in “Terminator Salvation,” Jeff Bridges in “Tron: Legacy,” Michael Douglas in “Ant-Man,” Kurt Russell in “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2,” Samuel L. Jackson in “Captain Marvel,...

This was supposed to be the first “business as usual” summer movie season after Covid. Then the WGA strike came.
The Hollywood writers’ strike effects on TV were swift and obvious, like the shuttering of late-night television. The effects on the movies could play out over a far longer timetable, insidiously bleeding an already wounded industry.
Everyone agrees, with a few specific exceptions, that moviegoers returning to theaters won’t see the strike. “The movies for 2023 and 2024 have pretty much been written. In many cases, they’ve already been filmed,” AMC CEO Adam Aron noted Friday on his company’s quarterly earnings call with analysts. He was just the latest in a string of executives to reassure Wall Street of the strike’s limited impact.

Jonathan Goldstein's and John Francis Daley's new film "Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves" follows the hilarious adventures of a ragtag group of, well, thieves who were separated years before in a heist gone wrong. Edgin Darvis (Chris Pine) and Holga (Michelle Rodriguez) spent a few years in prison before escaping to find their old compatriots and return Edgin to his teenage daughter Kira (Chloe Coleman). They find that Kira has been living in luxury with Forge (Hugh Grant) a former conman who has become incredibly wealthy while his friends languished in prison. It's Forge did not come by his fortunes honestly, and indeed has made some shady deals with mysterious -- and clearly evil -- red wizards.
Because Forge is played by Hugh Grant, however, he comes across less like a calculating villain and more like an affable cad. He is one of the film's antagonists, but...

Hugh Grant has picked the hill he wants to die on: A “Notting Hill” Easter egg, to be exact.
The deadpan actor revealed during a Wired video alongside “Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves” co-stars Chris Pine and Michelle Rodriguez that he found the ending of 1999 rom-com “Notting Hill” to be “nauseating” due to a small detail director Roger Michell included.
“Notting Hill,” which has been considered by many a rom-com classic over the years, stars Julia Roberts as Anna Scott, a famous actress who falls for local British bookstore owner William Thacker (Grant) while filming on location. The final scene shows Anna cuddling with William on a park bench as he reads a novel, one that had a special meaning to late director Michell.
“In that nauseating moment on the bench at the end, I’m reading ‘Captain Corelli’s Mandolin’ by Louis de Bernières, which was going to be his next film,...

The British actor told Total Film magazine that he flipped out at a “nice local woman” while filming “Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves”, before realizing who she was.
“I lost my temper with a woman in my eye line on day one. I assumed she was some executive from the studio who should have known better,” Grant recalled, according to Yahoo! News.

Bale has since apologized, calling his rant “inexcusable.

Whether we want it or not, we’re getting more Lord of the Rings. The press release that announced it read like the work of a cyborg. “The opportunity to invite fans deeper into the cinematic world of Middle-earth is an honour,” whirred the Warner Bros chatbot. “We are excited to partner with Middle-earth Enterprises and Embracer on this adventure.” The dull, unenthused syntax felt appropriate, but at the same time surprising. No one wants a raft of new Lord of the Rings content, after all. Many fans have already voiced their despair, still burned by three interminable Hobbit movies in which Martin Freeman wandered around poorly rendered cliff-sides looking confused. But to see a major Hollywood studio struggle to feign even a smidge of creative urgency to it all is something new. Instead, there will be more Lord of the Rings simply because there needs to be more Lord of the Rings.

In James Cameron's 2009 film "Avatar," Sam Worthington plays Jake Sully, a jarhead military man who is capable at tactics and little else. When his consciousness is shunted into the body of a nine-foot cloned Na'vi, and he goes out onto an alien world to learn the Na'vi ways, he finds his mind expanding, and his hatred for the human world increasing. By the end of the film, he moves into his alien body permanently to live a vaunted position among them. The story is something straight out of James Fenimore Cooper, with Jake Sully fulfilling a well-worn "going native" role favored in a certain subgenre of colonialist fiction.
Jake Sully isn't a terribly sophisticated character, which may be kind of the point. It wouldn't be until the release of "Avatar: The Way of Water," where Jake is now 13 years older but still a military-minded guy, that he would reveal the consistency of his character.

It’s safe to say that often times dragging out a franchise for too long can damage its name! Sometimes it’s best to just leave a classic alone and leave people wanting more. But in 1991, James Cameron shocked the world and gave us one of the best sequels ever made with Terminator 2: Judgement Day. Not only did it totally surpass the first one, but it also became a box office smash and remains a classic today and one of the greatest action movies ever made! But somewhere along the line things got a little questionable and the big stickler

Alright everyone, we’ve got all the spookies of October out of our system. Time to turn our eye to Hulu’s list of new releases for November 2022 to celebrate a new fall tradition of…hunky male dancers?
That’s right, Hulu’s biggest original title for November 2022 is Welcome to Chippendales on Nov. 22. This limited series stars Kumail Nanjiani (Eternals) as Somen “Steve” Banerjee, the real life founder of the original Chippendales club of exotic male dancers. After hits like The Dropout and Pam & Tommy, Hulu likely has high hopes for this one.
The other big original series of note this month is FX’s Fleishman is in Trouble on Nov. 17. This is based on a 2019 novel of the same name and stars Jesse Eisenberg as the titular Toby Fleischman in crisis. Before that, Hulu is teaming up with ABC for some true crime docuseries like Where is Private Dulaney?...
