Arnold Schwarzenegger is returning to the "Terminator" franchise in "Terminator: Genesis," set to begin shooting at the end of April. While promoting his new film, "Sabotage," he talked about what it means to be returning to the film franchise he helped begin almost 30 years ago. "It will be challenging because it will be a new director, and it will be a really action packed movie," Schwarzenegger told MTV. "And sometimes it does get more difficult when you're 66 years old and doing this kind of action, versus when you're in your 30s or in your 40s." But how does it make sense for a 66 year old Schwarzenegger to play the same robot he play 30 years ago at all? "The way that the character is written, it's a machine underneath," Schwarzenegger said. "It's this metal skeleton. But above that is human flesh. And the Terminator's flesh ages, just like any other human being's flesh. Maybe not as fast. But it definitely ages." On top of aging robots, Schwarzenegger says we can expect plenty of time travel shenanigans as well. It is a "Terminator" movie, after all. "Terminator: Genesis" is scheduled for theatrical release om July 1, 2015.
