Producer David Ellison approached James Cameron with the idea of an installment that serves as a direct sequel, ignoring the past three installments after admitting that Terminator Genisys (2015) fell short of the expectations. "He [Ellison] was quite honest with me about this - [Genisys] fell short of the mark and didn't really do what he had wanted it to do. So he said, 'Let's start with a blank slate and take it back to T2.' And that idea was intriguing." After much thinking, Cameron had several ideas to began with in the story's premise including: a Terminator who has no mission and purpose that blended into human society and has learned a lot over two decades; a machine that ages over time on the exterior but performs same functions designed and a lead female action hero (Sarah) at the age of 60s that has never been shown before on screen.

[first lines]
Sarah Connor:

It's not a dream, you moron. It's real. I know the date it happens.

This really isn't a sequel to T2. The plot of this movie actually negates the first two movies, only to retell basically the same story. There are some great action sequences, by the story is basically the same as previous Terminator films. Someone from the future is sent back to the past to protect the 'only hope' in the future.
We know from T2 that Skynet is stopped, so Judgment Day never happens. But none of this matters, because a new company called Legion, ends up doing the same thing in the future anyway. Basically, this movie tells us that an AI Judgment Day is inevitable. Even if they stop Legion in this movie, another company can just take its place in any future sequel.
