Photo Shows Return of Young John Connor In ‘Terminator,’ Which Will Take Us Back to the ’90s!
Tim Miller is heading back to 1991 with Terminator, the next sequel in the franchise that’s now filming in Madrid. The newest installment is said to ignore all sequels except James Cameron‘s Terminator 2: Judgment Day, although it’s been unknown up until this point where the story would pick up.
It was reported last month that Brett Azar had joined the cast. This was notable as he played a younger Arnold Schwarzenegger in Terminator: Genisys, which suggested we’ll possibly be seeing a younger version of the T-800 in some capacity. Now, it looks like another character will be returning.
A photo is making the rounds that shows Azar with a young actor, Jude Collie, who is alleged to be playing a young John Connor in Terminator! When the photo was shared on socials, it declared both actors as CGI stand-ins, which means it’s quite possible that we’ll be seeing Edward Furlong‘s young face in the film.
While it’s incredibly disappointing that Furlong wasn’t cast to star in the film alongside Linda Hamilton (Sarah Connor), it’s a relief to know that he’ll be included in some capacity. Also, if true, this photo all but confirms that Miller will be heading back to 1991 and toying with the events in Cameron’s Judgment Day! Does this also mean we’ll see the return of Robert Patrick‘s T-1000?! Oh God, don’t tease me.
Miller and Cameron recently found their new Terminator in Gabriel Luna, who appeared as Ghost Rider in ABC’s superhero series Marvel’s “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” Paramount releases the film on November 22, 2019.
Thanks to Bloody reader @antmaurizio for tipping me off! Update: TheTerminatorFans.com originally broke the news but had a takedown request as their report contained speculation that could have been too close to the mark of how the young actor will be utilized in the movie.
Sunrise Films has announced the official North American release of William Bagley‘s horror comedy Hold the Fort, and it’s accompanied by an energetic new trailer.
Hold the Fort debuts on digital platforms on June 23.
In the film, “Lucas and Jenny think their life is finally coming together when the couple become homeowners. Little do they know that their new house comes with a big catch. Lucas and Jenny soon find themselves in a fight for their lives when they become trapped in a battle between their Homeowners Association and an onslaught of monsters from hell. The horror-comedy takes the timely concern of home-ownership and wraps this up in an entertaining action-packed thrill ride.“
Watch the new trailer below, which introduces one wild HOA gathering during an equinox. Things get bloody fast.
Chris Mayers (Adult Swim Yule Log), Haley Leary (“The Walking Dead”), Levi Burdick, and Julian Smith star.
William Bagley writes and directs, in addition to producing with Smith, Matt Dodd, Luke Williams, and Tim Reis (Adult Swim Yule Log).
Ahead of the release, Bagley said, “My goal with this film was to make a hilarious, fast-paced thrill ride while also telling a great story with heart. Hopefully, through all the blood, laughs, fights, and gags, you leave the film feeling inspired to tackle whatever life throws at you.“
Hold the Fort premiered at Fantasia last summer before going on to play FrightFest London, Toronto After Dark, and Beyond Fest.
I wrote in my review, “It’s an infectiously charming assemblage of jokes and monster vignettes bound together by a barebones plot with not much on its mind beyond delivering an entertaining time.”
