The ‘Terminator’ Franchise Is Getting a New Female Hero
Since Terminator creator James Cameron is busy directing several Avatar sequels, he’s enlisted Deadpool‘s Tim Miller to direct the sixth entry that could shoot this coming May through November in the U.K., Spain, and Budapest.
Even with Linda Hamilton and Arnold Schwarzenegger returning to their roles, Cameron and Miller are looking to Stars Wars as a formula for rebuilding a nearly-destroyed franchise. This included new characters and the passing of the baton.
“Absolutely, yeah. A lot of this is handing off the baton to a new generation of characters,” said Cameron last September. “We’re starting a search for an 18-something young woman to essentially be the new centerpiece of these stories. And then a number of other characters around her and characters from the future. We still fold time in the story in intriguing ways. But we have Arnold’s character and Linda’s character to anchor it. Somewhere across there, and I won’t say where, the baton gets passed, so to speak.”
Omega Underground and TerminatorFans may have an idea of who one of the aforementioned characters could be.
The casting is for the key role of DANI RAMOS, “A young woman in her early 20s from Mexico City and has grown up in a working-class neighborhood. More street-smart than book smart, the character is said to serve as the main human lead character who could carry the franchise from here on out.” She sounds like the perfect companion to Hamilton’s Sarah Connor.
The film, set for release on July 26th, 2019, will ignore all of the sequels and instead begin after the events in Terminator 2: Judgment Day.
Following in the wake of Winnie the Pooh and Mickey Mouse getting their own horror movies, Hans Christian Andersen’s The Little Mermaid is the next to get the twisted treatment.
Originally published in 1837, the original tale of The Little Mermaid is now in the public domain, and MSR Media International presents their own horror version of the tale this year.
The Little Mermaid is being distributed by Grindstone Entertainment Group, and the film has officially been rated “R” this week for “Language, some violence and brief nudity.”
In the film from director Leigh Scott, “Dr. Eric Prince, an archaeologist, makes a dramatic discovery on a small Caribbean island—proof of an ancient, advanced prehistoric society. While his dig is in progress, he meets the mysterious and beautiful Aurora Bey and falls in love. Her arrival coincides with several mermaid sightings and strange disappearances.
“When Eric’s friend and mentor, Dr. Ashley, arrives on the island, Ashley uncovers the true identity of Aurora and the dangers of the hidden evil inside Eric’s dig site. Will Eric heed his friend’s advice, or will he be blinded by love and the power of the siren, allowing the world to fall to the forces of evil?”
Lydia Helen, Mike Markoff and Jeff Denton star in The Little Mermaid.
