Paramount Pictures really needed Terminator: Dark Fate to be a financial success, as the company has had years of box office failures (with a few hits here and there). Terminator: Dark Fate was an equal co-investment between Skydance, Paramount and Tencent, so the risk was not solely on Paramount’s shoulders but Terminator was a big deal in that “revival” plan for the once great studio. Terminator star Linda Hamilton, AKA Sarah Connor, spoke to CinemaBlend about the box office failure of Terminator: Dark Fate, the Terminator fanbase and the future of Terminator. Linda Hamilton stated: “I really think that box…

Aging actors via practical FX makeup is not new ground for the Terminator series, as the franchise has always dealt with the future – or showing us the outcome of certain life-changing events. The first make-up artist to utilise aging in the Terminator franchise was Jeff Dawn, in collaboration with Stan Winston Studio, who handled the prosthetic applications for Dawn to work with. As with Bill Corso’s work on T:DF, the work Jeff Dawn did was great but just like CGI characters – it can sometimes go into uncanny valley territory and feel off, some things just can’t fool the…
A while ago we asked if fans would buy into Dani Ramos as the franchise lead, as it was very obvious that she was the new “John Connor” of the franchise.

Linda Hamilton has recently been doing interviews for the home release of Terminator: Dark Fate, and she told CinemaBlend the following regarding the return of her character (Sarah Connor) after many years of absence from the franchise and wanting to have visual shock value in the same way she achieved in Terminator 2: Judgment Day… Linda Hamilton (presumably) joked… The shock value, I think, sort of plants everybody in, immediately. I actually kept arguing that maybe she should just be fat. That would have shock value too. Linda Hamilton via CinemaBlend On wanting to achieve a major physical transformation again,…
Terminator: Dark Fate was a financial failure, effectively putting the kibosh on a trilogy which was set to kick into gear with TDF. One victim of the box-office fallout was of course, the much loved, Terminator legend Linda Hamilton. Linda spoke to The Hollywood Reporter about potentially returning as Sarah Connor, she said: “No. Something says to me… I don’t know. I would really appreciate maybe a smaller version where so many millions are not at stake. Today’s audience is just so unpredictable. I can’t tell you how many laymen just go, ‘Well, people don’t go to the movies anymore.’…
According to We Got This Covered Terminator: Dark Fate may live on as a TV Show… Sources close to WGTC say that a new Terminator TV show may be coming to one of the big streaming services, and it’s likely to be Hulu. The show will be produced by James Cameron, the plot will continue where Dark Fate left off and most of the surviving cast will return, including Linda Hamilton. Given the events of Dark Fate, we won’t be seeing Arnold Schwarzenegger, but the aftermath of the movie could make for some neat drama. And seeing as this intel comes to us from the same…
