We’ve known for a little while that that upcoming James Cameron and Tim Miller-developed was to bring back some familiar faces whilst shifting the focus of the franchise to a new batch of characters. And now, we’ve finally got word on who’ll be spearheading the charge as one of these newbies.

As per Variety, Mackenzie Davis has been brought in as one of the leads of the sixth Terminator picture. Davis is best known for the likes of Halt and Catch Fire, The Martian, and Blade Runner 2049.

This return for the Terminator series will completely ignore anything that’s happened since Cameron’s Terminator 2: Judgment Day. While the rights for the franchise have now reverted to creator Cameron, his involvement in the four ongoing Avatar sequels means he won’t be directing this return for Das Arnold’s T-800. That’s where Deadpool’s Tim Miller comes in, for he’s the person tasked with filling the director’s chair. As far as Mackenzie Davis, she’s actually been on the radar of Miller for a little while now, with him originally wanting her to play Domino in Deadpool 2 before Miller ultimately departed that project.

In addition to Arnold Schwarzenegger reprising one of – if not the – most iconic roles of his career, Linda Hamilton will be back as one of the most badass women in cinema history, Sarah Connor.

At present, this to-be-titled Terminator effort is booked in for a July 26th, 2019 release.
