What can we expect from Terminator Zero?
Lee has created an advanced AI named Kokoro to counter Skynets insidious defense system.
Terminator Zero is a new anime series that debuts on Netflix on August 29.
It depends on what time of day it is, Tomlin tells TechRadar.
Are there things that I wish were different or things that I wish I could change?
Yes, thats always the case.
There’s no Sarah Connor in this Terminator anime.
I can live with this one.
And if people hate it, its my fault.
And if people love it, its my fault.
There’s no Sarah Connor in this Terminator anime.
At a certain point you have to kind of just let it go and let whatever happens happen.
And when that moment occurs Ill take a deep breath and let go.
I didnt have to compromise anywhere.
“There’s a lot of faces coming off through Terminator Zero."
That didnt happen here.
I raised my hand and I said, Id like to do this.
And they said, Sounds great, go do it.
Any note that I ever got from Netflix or from Skydance was a helpful note about clarification.
I love those notes because if theyre confused, the audience is going to be confused too.
I turned it off and returned the tape, Tomlin recalls.
I had nightmares for a month and they all involved teeth falling out and faces getting ripped off.
Its funny, theres a lot of faces coming off throughTerminator Zero.
In the first movie I directed,Mother/Android,a face gets torn off there as well.
I dont walk around afraid someone is going to tear my face off.
But theres something about that kind of violent, brutal, bloody image of were all skeletons underneath.
InTerminator, when you strip it down, youre not human underneath, youre metal.
I did the thing that wasnt quite done.
Lets have this guy that looks pretty normal.
Are we doing a big meaty guy?
I found this article where Cameron was describing potentially casting Lance Henriksen as the Terminator.
And Lance and Arnold couldnt be more different.
The original conception was that hes an infiltrator.
He can sneak in and sneak out of anywhere almost like a spy.
That never happened in any of the movies.
Instead it went into leather jackets and Harley-Davidsons and shotguns and sunglasses.
So for me, I didnt think I could compete with that.
Its been done at the highest level so I did the thing that wasnt quite done.
Lets have this guy that looks pretty normal.
Hes a little bit cross-eyed, hes got this greasy slicked-back hair.
From Netflix Animation and Skydance TV,Terminator Zeroarrives on Judgment Day, August 29.
