Emilia Clarke from 'Game of Thrones' to star in 'Terminator' reboot

Emilia Clarke of Game of Thrones fame will play the key role of Sarah Connor in the upcoming Terminator franchise reboot that's expected to hit theaters in mid-2015. Clarke is perhaps best known for her role as dragon-toting Daenerys Targaryen in the Game of Thrones TV series on HBO. Deadline, which reported the casting, says Clarke beat out actress Brie Larson for what was a seminal role played by Linda Hamilton in the first twoTerminator films. Clarke will be joined by Arnold Schwarzenegger, and possibly Jason Clarke, who acted in and produced "Zero Dark Thirty," and is said to be currently in negotiations.

The new films will be a stand-alone trilogy that starts with Terminator: Genesis on July 1, 2015. Part of the reason for a reemergence of the films were rights issues for the franchise, which revert back to James Cameron in 2019. Siblings Megan Ellison and David Ellison secured the filming rights last year, with reports that there will also be a TV show tie-in. The series is just the latest 1980s action series to get a revamp, with José Padilha's new RoboCop film arriving next February.

:ohhh: I've NEVER seen any of the Terminator films or TSCC TV Show (despite the fact that I own both seasons of TSCC on Blu-ray & I had Terminator films on VHS growing up). I need to jump on this, already. I also need to jump on GoT, since it's only 10 episodes a season.

:merchant:

Goddamn at the negs you're about to get.

Watch those shyts right now.

You probably won't like Terminator 1. It hasn't aged well.

But Terminator 2 (which absolutely should not be watched before Terminator 1)?

:gladbron: :krs:

I envy that you get to see it for the first time.

The film is a masterpiece.

I thought the new Terminator movie was going to be about Sarah's parents and a robot being sent back in time to kill them.

This sounds like a straight up remake of the first Terminator with Jason Clarke playing Reese.
