James Cameron to ‘re-invent’ Terminator

James Cameron says it could be fun to  »completely re-invent » ‘Terminator’.

The famed film director – who was responsible for the original 1984 film ‘The Terminator’ starring Arnold Schwarzenegger – has hinted that he might revisit the franchise once ‘Terminator: Genisys’ is completed.

Talking to Empire magazine, James said:  »I haven’t really thought that far ahead yet. I’ve got plenty of time to think about it. It might be fun to completely re-invent the franchise. A lot has to do with what happens in the meantime, people may have ‘Terminator’ fatigue. »

Regarding the new ‘Terminator’ movie, which is due out in 2015, James added that he isn’t concerned with how this film could affect his ‘Terminator’ legacy.

He said:  »It’s not my problem! It’s like being a grandparent, the kids come over and you can send them back. When I walked away from the franchise, I had to do it with the sense that I can invest in emotion. To me, it’s all upside, because if it’s good, it’s good for Arnold. »

He then added that he has every faith in the new film’s writer Laeta Kalogridis.

James told the magazine:  »I hoping it’s great. I’d like them to get it right, and based on the script that I read there’s a pretty good chance that it could. It looks like it could be fun. »
