James Cameron plans to resurrect his Terminator franchise in 2019


James Cameron who has given films like Terminator, Avatar and Titanic wants to take a fresh look at his biggest franchise - Terminator. He has plans to resurrect his Terminator franchise in 2019, when the rights revert back to him. He had sold the script for The Terminator for US$1 in 1984 in order to get the film made. It went on to be a super hit. He did direct the sequel in 1991, but has not been involved in the franchise since then.
It seems he will "godfather" the new installment, and wants Deadpool director Tim Miller to headline the project. Whether Arnold Schwarzenegger will also be seen has not been disclosed. He was featured as one of the titular Terminators in four of the five movies so far.
This has been reported in nzherald.co.nz dated 21 January 2017.
The Terminator franchise last movie was in 2015 with Genisys - it was not liked by critics and bombed in the United States, but was a hit in China. The sixth movie is expected to be a "reboot and a conclusion". It raises the possibility that Cameron will finally put an end to the battle between humans and Cybernet.
This year, James Cameron will celebrate the 20th anniversary of his multi-Oscar winner Titanic and is scheduled to begin work on Avatar 2 in New Zealand in April.

James Cameron, writer director of Avatar, promises his fans four sequels


James Cameron, the writer director of Avatar has changed his mind - instead of the early promise of three sequels, he is planning for four sequels. These will be released in 2018, 2020, 2022 and 2023.
This has been reported in news.sky.com dated 15 April 2016.
Cameron has revealed his plans when he appeared as a surprise guest at Fox's CinemaCon in Las Vegas - he has explained that in his opinion, the idea of three sequels would be limiting. He wanted more time to tell his story and, hence, needed more instalments.
He has admitted that he has been working the last couple of years with a team of four top screenwriters - the purpose was to design the world of Avatar going forward: the characters, the creatures, the environment, the new cultures. It is still in the imagination stage and, when completed, it would be a true epic saga.
Of course, he would have an eye on the box office - the original in 2009 had earned $2.8bn worldwide.
