“The story has changed, so I am like a combination of the characters who you have seen in the past. He is a powerful and potentially evil kind of machine that can be very destructive if I see that a there is danger from me or for the victory against the machines. I can switch over to being the protector of Sarah Connor. It depends where we are in this storyline.”
Make sense? The story will follow the path James Cameron's films set previously, however when Kyle Reese (Jai Courtney) is sent by John Connor (Jason Clarke) to 1984 to protect Sarah Connor (Emilia Clarke), he'll discover that the timeline isn't what it should be. She's an orphan with a Terminator sidekick keeping her safe.
So while you're trying to wrap your brain around that, a rumor surfaced yesterday about Matt Smith's role, which has been kept a secret since the day he was cast.SPOILERS beyond this point, folks!
The story emerged from one of Latino Review's sources that Smith is actually playing the embodiment of Skynet, similar to Helena Bonham Carter's role in Terminator Salvation. He'll take physical shape and be an actual antagonist who must be defeated. Sounds pretty cool, and apparently this news was meant to be kept secret because LR was forced to take their report down.
Terminator Genisys opens July 1st.
