Quick update. Yesterday we passed along word that once James Cameron is finished producing director Tim Miller's upcoming TERMINATOR movie, he may be moving on to helping out writer-director Neill Blomkamp on an ALIENS movie. We'll see if that even comes to fruition, but either way that's not what we're here today to talk about. Today is all about TERMINATOR 6. And Cameron just revealed the working title.
The filmmaker was recently speaking with Yahoo! and the conversation led to this new TERMINATOR movie. And James Cameron told the site:
We’re calling it, Terminator: Dark Fate. That’s our working title right now.
So as of right now, straight from the horse's mouth, we can all start referring to TERMINATOR 6 as TERMINATOR: DARK FATE. Sounds a bit too much like another CHRONICLES OF RIDDICK sequel to me, but it'll work until they think of something better right? Like, I don't know, TERMINATOR: PHOENIX? What do YOU think of the title? Let us know below!
T2: JUDGMENT DAY synopsis:
In this sequel set eleven years after "The Terminator," young John Connor (Edward Furlong), the key to civilization's victory over a future robot uprising, is the target of the shape-shifting T-1000 (Robert Patrick), a Terminator sent from the future to kill him. Another Terminator, the revamped T-800 (Arnold Schwarzenegger), has been sent back to protect the boy. As John and his mother (Linda Hamilton) go on the run with the T-800, the boy forms an unexpected bond with the robot.
TERMINATOR: DARK FATE is directed by Tim Miller (DEADPOOL) from a screenplay written by David S. Goyer, based on a story conceived by Miller, Cameron, and David Ellison. Cameron and Ellison serve as the sequel's producers alongside Dana Goldberg. The film will star Schwarzenegger and Hamilton, along with Mackenzie Davis, Gabriel Luna, Natalia Reyes, and Diego Boneta. The film previously had release dates of July 26, November 15, and November 22, 2019, but now the untitled TERMINATOR film is scheduled to be released on November 1, 2019. For real this time. No, really.
