Sadly
the new trailer for Alan Taylor's Terminator: Genisys just dropped. I say sadly
because even if there is more to the story - and I'm sure or at least hoping
there is - a big and spoilery twist was unnecessarily revealed.
In
the trailer we see John Connor, played by Jason Clarke, as the leader of the
rebellion against the machines, however by the end of it he suddenly appears in
the past and it is revealed that is also a machine.
Speaking
to Entertainment Weekly, Clarke didn't had much to say about the twist, however…
To quote Spinal Tap:
“It turns it up to 11.” It takes it from a typical machine chasing the good
guys to giving it a bit more complexity within the same realm.
More
opened to talk about the dynamic involved in playing both the good and bad
versions of the same character, Clarke says that it was fun to explore both
sides of not only John Connor the man but also John Connor the machine.
Not just the good and
bad of one man but the good and the bad of man and machine. Technology has
become more and more engrained inside of us and John becomes the ultimate
realization of that. It was a lot of fun to play and it was a lot of fun as a
group to work out what the boundaries are of that. A lot of it they are still designing.
However, it seems
that John's transformation into a machine isn't yet fully, as his mind still
perceives the pain of physical trauma despite being an android.
When John gets shot,
he experiences the pain, and even though he is a machine at that point, he
hasn’t experienced the benefits of what he can do. It was a kind of learn as
you go. He was aware of it, but he was still experiencing it, still harnessing
it, and learning how to dictate it.
Opening on
July 1st, Terminator: Genisys stars Emilia Clarke, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jai
Courtney, Jason Clarke, Byung-hun Lee, J.K. Simmons, Dayo Okeniyi, Courtney B. Vance, Michael Gladis,
