In 1984, director James Cameron established himself in Hollywood with The Terminator. Cameron returned to helm Terminator 2 in 1991, which is widely regarded as one of the best sci-fi action films of all-time. Regardless, the franchise has struggled for the last few sequels. But that hasn’t deterred Cameron from pursuing a new Terminator project.
During an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Cameron casually mentioned his Terminator plans without offering any details about them.
“I’m working on my own Terminator stuff right now,” said Cameron, who later added, “It’s totally classified. I don’t want to have to send out a potentially dangerous robotic agent if you were to talk about it, even retroactively.”
Cameron co-wrote the story for Terminator: Dark Fate, which reunited Arnold Schwarzenegger and Linda Hamilton for the first time since Terminator 2. However, Cameron and director Tim Miller didn’t see eye-to-eye on everything, and the movie bombed in 2019. The only announced Terminator project on the horizon is Netflix’s animated series, Terminator Zero. It turns out that Cameron is keeping an eye on that show as well.
“It looks interesting,” said Cameron. “My relationship to that is very much like The Sarah Connor Chronicles–other people spinning stories in a world I set in motion is interesting to me. What’s their takeaway? What intrigued them about it? Where are they going with it? It looks like they’re going back to the root cause of Judgment Day–the nuclear war–and whether that’s an ultimate timeline. I’d be curious to see what they’ve come up with… Like with The Sarah Connor Chronicles, they occasionally touched on things I had been playing with completely independently. So there’s some curiosity there. It’s not a burning curiosity, but, obviously, it’d be nice to see it succeed.”
Netflix’s Terminator Zero will premiere on August 30.
