The first official trailer for "Terminator: Genisys" has been released along with a teaser poster and a motion poster. The trailer is available in two versions, domestic and international.
Directed by Alan Taylor ("Game of Thrones", "Thor: The Dark World"), the film reboots the franchise in more ways than expected. The story follows Kyle Reese (Jai Courtney) as he is sent by John Connor (Jason Clarke) back in time to 1984 to save his mother, Sarah Connor (Emilia Clarke) from a Terminator. However, once he gets to 1984, Reese finds that things are not the way they were supposed to be (or the way we remember them from the original film). And this is where it all gets weird, with Sarah Connor already geared up to battle Terminators, Arnold Schwarzenegger playing an old cyborg and a CGI-ed version of his 1984 self, and the T2 shapeshifting robot is somehow involved and now played by Byung-hun Lee.
It's impossible to even guess what the plot is all about, but it pretty much feels like they're throwing in everything but the kitchen sink in the hopes of sparking a new trilogy. And, apart from Clarke and Lee, the rest of the actors seem awkwardly cast in this. The film also stars Matt Smith, J.K. Simmons and Dayo Okeniyi.
"Terminator: Genisys" opens in theaters on July 1, 2015.
