Production Details

What we know about the Terminator Salvation movie production.

Key Facts

  • This film will look to reinvent the "Terminator" franchise with a storyline that is expected to be told over three movies.

    The first three "Terminator" films all featured Arnold Schwarzenegger; it's unlikely the current governor of California would be involved in the fourth film (although a cameo is possible).

    Halcyon was created by entrepreneurs Victor Kubicek and Derek Anderson. It acquired the right to produce "Terminator" films, future merchandising and licensing ventures.
