15 June 2013 12:52 AM, PDT | RealBollywood.com | See recent RealBollywood news »

The 65-year-old will reprise his most iconic role as the killer cyborg for the first time since 2003 film "Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines", reports contactmusic.com.

During an appearance at the 21st Century Financial Education Summit in Australia, Schwarzenegger is reported to have said: "I'm very happy that the studios want me to be in 'Terminator 5' and to star as the Terminator, which we start shooting in January. I feel very proud of that.. »

"Terminator 5" Re-Wired For January Start

13 June 2013 1:19 PM, PDT | SneakPeek | See recent SneakPeek news »

Paramount will now distribute the Annapurna Pictures', Skydance Productions 3D feature, "Terminator 5" for producers Megan and David Ellison, with production targeting a January 2014 start.

"I'm very happy that the studios want me to be in 'Terminator 5'", said Arnold Schwarzenegger, "and to star as the 'Terminator'. We start shooting in January..."

Annapurna Pictures purchased the rights to the "Terminator" May 2011, with the stipulation that if nothing is done with the property by a specific date, screen rights would revert back to "Terminator" co-creators James Cameron and Gale Anne Hurd.

"The Terminator" released in 1984, was inspired by themes and premises by science fiction author Harlan Ellison, then scripted by Gale Anne Hurd and Cameron, with direction by Cameron, after Roger Corman passed on the project.

Schwarzenegger plays the 'Terminator', a 'cyborg' sent back in time from the year 2029 to 1984 to kill 'Sarah Connor »

Arnold Schwarzenegger Confirms He'll Be Back as The Terminator in Terminator 5

13 June 2013 12:46 PM, PDT | MovieWeb | See recent MovieWeb news »

Many speculated that Arnold Schwarzenegger was too old to reprise his title role as The Terminator in Terminator 5. It was reported that he may instead play a military officer whose likeness is used in creating the 850 series Model 101, also known as the T-805 and the T-101 (sometimes also refered too as the T-800), as seen in the original The Terminator and its sequels Terminator 2: Judgment Day, Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, and Terminator Salvation.

This doesn't seem to be the case, as Arnold Schwarzenegger himself has officially confirmed that he will be back in the role of The Terminator for this latest sequel.

When asked if he was more excited about returning for The Legend of Conan or Terminator 5, he gave this response, which solidifies his participation as the infamous and iconic cyborg killer.

'Terminator 5' Eyes 2014 Start with Arnold Schwarzenegger Back as The Terminator

George Lucas and Steven Spielberg may not be able to get a movie made, but Arnold Schwarzenegger sure can. Speaking with The Arnold Fans Schwarzenegger confirms he will have a role in Terminator 5 and that it will begin shooting in January 2014. "I'm very happy that the studios want me to be in Terminator 5 and to star As the Terminator, which we start shooting in January and I'm also going to do King Conan - to play that role and also to do another Twins movie. So I feel very proud of that. I feel very happy and I'm looking forward to doing those films." That's right! More Terminator. More Conan. More Twins! I imagine Schwarzenegger reading Spielberg's thoughts and saying, "Yah Spielberg, da induh-stry iz really going to implode. Implode. Vhat does zat even meanc Da vurd iz explode, you know, like Ahnuld's cah-reer iz exploding! Schwarzenegger's confirmation »

Terminator 5 Finds Home At Paramount Pictures

12 June 2013 12:55 AM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »

Paramount Pictures looks likely to distribute the fifth entry in The Terminator franchise, which Arnold Schwarzenegger (who turns 66 next month) recently confirmed that he intends to be involved in, and probably lead.

The Wrap reports that rights-holders and financial backers Annapurna and Skydance are negotiating with the studio to become the new home for the three-decades old science fiction saga.

Patrick Lussier (director of Drive Angry and My Bloody Valentine 3D) and Laeta Kalogridis (Shutter Island, Avatar) have been writing the screenplay for the movie since the turn of the year, though no specific plot details have yet been released. A few drafts exist before they came on board and a little while back Fast and Furious filmmaker Justin Lin was originally going to direct Terminator 5 but commitments on Fast and Furious 6 forced his hand and he pulled out.

Paramount originally wanted Terminator 5 to be in production by »

Arnold Schwarzenegger Offers Terminator 5 And The Legend Of Conan Updates

1 June 2013 4:46 AM, PDT | ComicBookMovie.com | See recent ComicBookMovie news »

The Terminator and Terminator 2: Judgment Day are rightly considered classics, which made it all the more disappointing when Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines was a critical flop. Arnold Schwarzenegger would sit out Terminator Salvation, appearing only as a CGI creation. However, the former Governor of California is expected to fully reprise the role which helped to make him a household name in the fifth instalment of the franchise which has seemingly been stuck in development hell for a number of years now. However, Yahoo! Movies says that the actor recently confirmed in an interview that, "We're writing it now," before adding, "There are three projects being written that involve me. One is Terminator 5, the other is a Conan movie that Universal is doing and there's the sequel to Twins, which is called Triplets. We'll all look quite different in that. The third triplet is Eddie Murphy, so »

The Last Stand, Arnie, and the end of the action icon

29 May 2013 3:02 PM, PDT | Den of Geek | See recent Den of Geek news »

Feature Simon Brew 31 May 2013 - 06:51

Was The Last Stand's title all-too appropriate a description of Arnold Schwarzenegger's action career? Simon fears it might be...

Earlier this year, two former giants of action cinema were hit with heavy, heavy blows. Both Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger headlined brand new action films, in the shape of Bullet To The Head and The Last Stand respectively, and both failed dramatically at the box office

For Schwarzenegger, The Last Stand marked his first full leading role in a motion picture since Terminator 3: Rise Of The Machines back in 2003. A sabbatical into the world of politics had taken nearly a decade out of his movie career, and this was when he was to be back to what made him a global megastar.

The problem was, the build-up to The Last Stand overlooked a few things. Firstly, that the movie had been »

Arnold's Shocking New Role

14 May 2013 5:42 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

Arnold Schwarzenegger's comeback is about to get toxic. According to a press release from International Film Trust, Schwarzenegger will lead a remake of the cult classic "The Toxic Avenger," though not in the title role. The news was first reported by Variety.

In the new film, written and directed by Steve Pink ("Hot Tub Time Machine"), Schwarzenegger will play "The Exterminator," a former military operative who helps train the Toxic Avenger to use his powers for good instead of evil. The film is based on the 1984 Troma film from director Lloyd Kaufman, which focused on a small, bullied man who accidentally falls into a barrel of toxic waste and becomes a mutant with super strength.

"Moviegoers around the world were thrilled when Arnold Schwarzenegger returned to acting so effortlessly filling the gap that he left behind," producer and Ift co-founder Michael Benaroya said in the press release. "He is »

Nick Stahl Searched by Deputies on L.A.'s Skid Row—See the Pat-Down Pic

24 April 2013 3:54 PM, PDT | E! Online | See recent E! Online news »

Nick Stahl appears to have been a victim of circumstance. The Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines star was searched by authorities today during a routine sweep of Los Angeles' crime-ridden Skid Row area, with L.A. County Sheriff's Department spokesman Steve Whitmore confirming to E! News that Stahl was "detained because of the area he was in." "He was patted down and let go," Whitmore said. There was no official word, meanwhile, about what Stahl was doing in the neighborhood. Stahl's last run-in with the law was a Dec. 27 arrest at a porn store for alleged lewd conduct, but charges were never filed due to insufficient evidence. The 33-year-old actor was »

"The Terminator" Re-Wired

Development continues on Annapurna Pictures' "The Terminator" reboot, from the producers of "The Master", "Zero Dark Thirty" and "Spring Breakers". 

Annapurna Pictures purchased the rights to the "Terminator" May 2011, with the stipulation that if nothing is done with the property by a specific date, screen rights would revert back to "Terminator" co-creators James Cameron and Gale Anne Hurd.

Schwarzenegger plays the 'Terminator', a 'cyborg' sent back in time from the year 2029 to 1984 to kill 'Sarah Connor' (Hamilton). Biehn plays 'Kyle Reese', a soldier from the future sent back in time to protect Sarah.

Nick Stahl Steps Out With Family for a Pre-Easter Outing

1 April 2013 8:07 AM, PDT | E! Online | See recent E! Online news »

Things seem to be looking up for Nick Stahl! After a year that saw him seek treatment for drug addiction and get arrested, the troubled Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines star was snapped looking positively chipper as he took his wife Rose Stahl and daughter Marlo out for a pre-Easter stroll at The Grove Mall in Los Angeles on Saturday. The 33-year-old Stahl's sunny demeanor is a welcome turnaround given his recent highly publicized problems. After worrying his missus when he went missing for a week last May, Stahl checked into rehab only to disappear again the following month where he was found to be staying at a friend's house.  Then on Dec. 27, he was popped at a porn shop for »

Big Trouble For Arnold & Sly?

28 March 2013 9:43 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

Earlier this year, a scary thing happened to Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone: They became expendable for audiences, at least when starring in movies not called "The Expendables."

Schwarzengger, 65, back in front of the camera in a leading role for the first time since 2003's "Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines" weathered his worst opening in 27 years with "The Last Stand." The action film earned just over $12 million overall, a tally even lower than Schwarzenegger's much-maligned 1996 flop "Jingle All The Way" grossed during its opening weekend. Stallone, 66, didn't fare much better with "Bullet to the Head," which earned just $9.4 million at the North American box office, roughly three times less than the Stallone bomb "Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot" pulled down in 1992. Added together, "The Last Stand" and "Bullet to the Head" totaled $21 million in North America, a far cry from the $85 million the pair earned together in "The Expendables 2" last August. »

The things the movies think computers do

Odd List Den Of Geek 20 Mar 2013 - 06:35

Far from the familiar tools we use every day, computers are the stuff of magic, if Hollywood's to be believed...

Computers. What began as gigantic, wayward things the size of a house have been tamed and shrunk, and now live cheerfully in our pockets as mobile phones, in our bags as tablets or laptops, and on our desktops as workstations and gatherers of breadcrumbs.

To almost every one of us, computers are about as mysterious and unfathomable as cucumbers. But cast a casual eye over Hollywood's output of the last few decades, and you might think that computers were a product of the dark arts. In movies, computers make weird noises, possess strange powers, harbour despotic fantasies, and when all else fails, explode into a million fragments.

5 Changes That Would Have Improved Terminator Salvation

14 March 2013 9:16 AM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »

Ah Terminator Salvation, you truly were the film that made the world appreciate Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines.

Not that either of the third of fourth Terminator movies were that bad – it’s just that the first two set such high standards that it was always going to be a near impossible task to get out of their mighty shadows. Terminator Salvation took a few years to get off the ground (it always takes years to get a Terminator movie made) and while it was known that any involvement of Arnold Schwarzenegger would be limited due to his time as Governor of California, the film still has some big guns to back it up.

Director McG had been predominantly known as the guy who directed those Charlie’s Angels movies, but the involvement of Jonathon Nolan, who co-wrote The Dark Knight with brother Christopher Nolan was heavily publicised. As »

Top 10 Best Android & Cyborg Movies

6 March 2013 7:23 AM, PST | Reelzchannel.com | See recent ReelzChannel news »

"I see everything."

The field of robotics took another giant leap forward recently, with the creation of Rex, a "bionic man" with fully functional artificial human organs and lifelike features, bringing science reality ever closer to the science fiction depicted in movies. As incredible as it sounds, humanoid robots, or androids (just "droids" if you're George Lucas), like Rex have been appearing on screen since well before Czech writer Karel Capek gave the English language a name for them in his 1920 sci-fi play R.U.R. (Rossum's Universal Robots), with the human simulacrum Hadaly a featured character in the 1896 French movie L'Eve Futur (The Future Eve). Hundreds of movies have included androids — and their part man, part machine, cyborg cousins — since Hadaly, but which ones were the best? Help us rank the movies with the coolest, the baddest, the sexiest, the deadliest, the most terrifying androids and cyborgs.

Lionsgate Bringing The Last Stand To Blu-Ray In April

3 March 2013 5:44 PM, PST | We Got This Covered | See recent We Got This Covered news »

Lionsgate has announced director Kim Jee-Woon’s first American feature The Last Stand for Blu-Ray in April. The film stars Arnold Schwarzenegger, Johnny Knoxville and Peter Stormare.

It was only a matter of time before the 80′s action hero Arnold Schwarzenegger returned to the big screen. I’ve been longing for his return, ever since his brief popup in The Expendables and of course his disappointing performance in Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines. I’ve always been a huge fan of Schwarzenegger, having grown up the prime 90′s era where his films reigned supreme.

What better way to blow holes through some bad guys than to do it in director Kim Jee-Woon’s first American feature? The Last Stand in the hands of literally anyone else would have been a disaster, but Jee-Woon injects his unique brand of energy into almost all of the action scenes, making for a »

Top 10 Hottest Female Movie Villains

27 February 2013 7:03 PM, PST | Reelzchannel.com | See recent ReelzChannel news »

"I'm a woman and can't be taken for granted. Life's a bitch, now so am I."

Robert Rodriguez made us wait an agonizingly long seven years before he felt that the script for the follow-up to Sin City was good enough to go into production, but the extra three months it took for him to choose the actress to play the femme fatale in the movie were almost unbearable. It was recently revealed that Eva Green has been selected to play Ava Lord in Sin City: A Dame to Kill For, inspired casting that already has fans of the original movie and of the comic books created by Frank Miller salivating for opening day.

You can't have a great hero without a great villain. After all, it's the dastardly actions of the villains that provide the necessary obstacles for the heroes to overcome to achieve their greatness. But, just because »

Where next for the Terminator franchise?

8 February 2013 1:35 AM, PST | Den of Geek | See recent Den of Geek news »

Feature James Peaty Feb 11, 2013

What does the future hold for the Terminator franchise, and how can it regain its early 90s success? James takes a closer look...

It’s been a tough few years if you’re a fan of The Terminator franchise. With the creative belly flop that was Terminator Salvation (2009) coming just a few months after the cancellation of TV spin-off, The Sarah Connor Chronicles, you’d have been forgiven for thinking the game was finally up for the once venerable series.

However, thanks to the bankruptcy of former rights holder, The Halcyon Company, and the deep pockets of producer Megan Ellison’s Annapurna Pictures, the franchise now finds itself at a potentially interesting crossroads. Where once it was owned by a company overjoyed at hiring the dubious talents of director McG, now the franchise’s future is controlled by an outfit that has backed, in the space of a year, »
