Filmmaker James Cameron said he's discussed a new "Terminator" movie but "nothing's been decided." He said he would want to focus it on artificial intelligence rather than "bad robots gone crazy."

In 2019, Cameron told Deadline that "Dark Fate" could be the beginning of a new "Terminator" trilogy if it performed well enough at the box office. "If we get fortunate enough to make some money with 'Dark Fate' we know exactly where we can go with the subsequent films."

☆ Jennifer Lawrence draws criticism over comment about female action heroes
▼ + stars: | 2022-12-07 | by ( Dan Heching | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +2 min

CNN —Jennifer Lawrence shared her thoughts on the history of female-led action movies in a new interview, but the “Hunger Games” star is getting some flack for not quite getting it right. The Oscar winner spoke with fellow actress Viola Davis in an interview for Variety published on Wednesday, in which she mused on the past state of action movies with a female lead. People on social media were quick to point out, however, that Lawrence was far from the first female action hero, with many tweets referencing Sigourney Weaver in the “Alien” franchise, Linda Hamilton in the “Terminator” movies and Pam Grier in films like “Foxy Brown” – all of which predate “The Hunger Games” franchise. “It is absolutely true that Hollywood had and has a real bias against women driven action movies because of this ridiculous belief about who identifies with whom.”Other examples brought to light in comments on Twitter and beyond pointed to Michelle Yeoh in “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon” and other films, Milla Jovovich and Michelle Rodriguez in the “Resident Evil” franchise, Uma Thurman in “Kill Bill” and Angelina Jolie in the “Tomb Raider” movies. CNN has reached out to representatives of Jennifer Lawrence for clarification on her statement.
