While both Cameron and Hamilton haven’t been involved in the franchise since 1991’s Terminator 2: Judgement Day, the new movie will be treated as a direct sequel.

Cameron added: “We’re starting a search for an 18-something woman to be the new centrepiece of the new story. We still fold time.

“We will have characters from the future and the present. There will be mostly new characters, but we’ll have Arnold and Linda’s characters to anchor it.”
