Arnold Schwarzenegger claims Terminator 5 is set to begin filming towards the early part of 2014.
Rumors have been swirling recently about the state of the franchise. Although efforts were made to get the project up and running a while ago, problems behind-the-scenes forced producers to delay the project indefinitely.
However, franchise star Arnold Schwarzenegger recently stated the project could begin production as early as next year. This means fans of the series might get another installment towards the end of 2014 or at some point in 2015.
The Predator star recently headed to Australia for the 21st Century Financial Education Summit. During the event, someone had the courage to ask the actor about the project.
“‘Terminator 5’ starts filming early 2014,” he explained to The Arnold Fans .
Terminator 5 isn’t the only sequel Schwarzenegger has lined up at the moment. According to the website, the actor will receive an updated script for the rumored Twins sequel Triplets very soon. However, it’s still unclear if the project is seriously being courted by Schwarzenegger. He’s also rumored to reprise his role as Conan in The Legend of Conan .
The Inquisitr previously reported that Terminator 5 will likely find a home at Paramount Pictures. However, the rights to the franchise will revert back to director James Cameron in 2019 if producers can’t get the project off the ground.
Before any of this goes down, Arnold Schwarzenegger will begin promoting his latest project Escape Plan . The upcoming thriller finds the 80s action hero starring alongside Expendables mastermind Sylvester Stallone as two guys who desperately want to break out of prison.
In addition to these box office titans, the flick also stars im Caviezel, Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, Vinnie Jones, Vincent D’Onofrio, and Amy Ryan. Summit Entertainment and Lionsgate will have the film in theaters across the US on October 18.
