‘Terminator’ returns with women taking charge

Paramount Pictures released an official photo for the upcoming Terminator movie, and make no mistake: These women are a force to be reckoned with.

The film stars Linda Hamilton, who will reprise her iconic role as Sarah Connor, along with newcomers Natalia Reyes (as Dani Ramos) and Mackenzie Davis (as Grace).

Although the film will co-star Arnold Schwarzenegger, who originated the role of the titular cyborg assassin, the sneak-peek photo suggests it’s the women who run this show.

Hamilton has come a long way from when audiences were first introduced to her as the damsel in distress in 1984’s Terminator. Wednesday’s first-look photo has her more in tough Terminator 2 mode, ready for action in a bulletproof vest, aviator sunglasses and carrying various forms of weaponry.

Still untitled, the Tim Miller (Deadpool) project, which Terminator creator James Cameron is producing, will hit theatres November 22.
