The ‘Terminator’ Is Back!
It’s always such a great feeling hearing that a film is officially behind cameras. At that point there’s no going back, and fans can rejoice in knowing that the film they’ve been hoping would come into fruition is locked and loaded.
Such the case with Terminator: Genesis, the fifth film in franchise, which has begun principal photograph today in New Orleans.
Below are some images from set, including the slate and Arnold Schwarzenegger rocking his 90’s leather pants (clearly a scene that takes place during T2).
Schwarzenegger is back in various forms of the Terminator cyborg (also known as the T-800, T-850 or Model 101). Dayo Okeniyi is playing the son of Miles Dyson, the Cyberdyne exec played by Joe Morton in Terminator: Judgement Day. Emilia Clarke takes on the major role of Sarah Connor, with Jai Courtney playing Kyle Reese, Jason Clarke as John Connor, as well as Byung-hun.
The Terminator is back July 1, 2015.

Julia Garner Joins Horror Movie ‘Weapons’ from the Director of ‘Barbarian’
In addition to Leigh Whannell’s upcoming Universal Monsters movie Wolf Man, Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel) has also joined the cast of Weapons, THR has announced tonight.
Weapons is the new horror movie from New Line Cinema and director Zach Cregger (Barbarian), with Julia Garner joining the previously announced Josh Brolin (Dune 2).
The upcoming Weapons is from writer/director Zach Cregger, who will also produce alongside his Barbarian producing team: Roy Lee of Vertigo and J.D. Lifshitz and Raphael Margules of BoulderLight Pictures. Vertigo’s Miri Yoon also produces.
The Hollywood Reporter teases, “Plot details for Weapons are being kept holstered but it is described as a multi and inter-related story horror epic that tonally is in the vein of Magnolia, the 1999 actor-crammed showcase from filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson.”
Cregger was a founding member and writer for the New York comedy troupe “The Whitest Kids U’Know,” which he started while attending The School of Visual Arts. The award-winning group’s self-titled sketch comedy show ran for five seasons on IFC-TV and Fuse. He was also a series regular on Jimmy Fallon’s NBC series “Guys with Kids” and the TBS hit series “Wrecked,” and was featured in a recurring role on the NBC series “About a Boy.”
Weapons will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures.
