Arnold Schwarzenegger and Linda Hamilton appear at the Terminator: Dark Fate panel at Hall H on Thursday (July 18) at Comic-Con 2019 in San Diego, Calif.
James Cameron, the series creator and producer, kicked off the event via video chat from the set of the Avatar sequels to reveal that Edward Furlong, who played John Connor in Terminator 2: Judgment Day, will be back as the character for the first time in nearly three decades.
Director Tim Miller confirmed Dark Fate will be R-rated, and will follow directly after 1991′s Terminator 2: Judgment Day and ignore further sequels.
More cast members in attendance included Mackenzie Davis, Diego Boneta, Natalia Reyes, and Gabriel Luna.
The panel also featured an extended scene teaser with a Terminator (Luna) hunting down a young woman named Dani under the protection of an enhanced human from the future named Grace. Sarah Connor saves the day at the last minute, according to THR.
There was also a revelation in the footage that Arnold‘s T-800 goes by the name “Carl” in the movie.
“I had a whole other plan in case it didn’t go R. The thing is the DNA of Terminator is an R-rated f–king movie,” the director explained.
FYI: Linda is wearing a rag & bone blazer. Mackenzie is wearing a Prada outfit, Aldo shoes, and a David Yurman ring. Diego is wearing Ermenegildo Zegna XXX.
