BITES: Bill & Ted Gets Title, Terminator 2019 Push Back, Dave Bautista Action-ComedyTerminator 2019 gets push back to November:

James Cameron and Tim Miller are treating the new movie as a direct sequel to Cameron’s Terminator 2: Judgment Day.

James Cameron explains:

“We’re starting a search for an 18-something woman to be the new centerpiece of the new story. We still fold time. We will have characters from the future and the present. There will be mostly new characters, but we’ll have Arnold and Linda’s characters to anchor it.”

The Hollywood Reporter confirms that Paramount has shuffled the still-untitled Terminator sequel back to November 22, 2019.

This isn’t a huge push – the film was originally set for July 26, so this is only a few months.

There’s no word yet on what has caused the Terminator date shuffle, but it could have to do with special effects work. Or perhaps the script needs a quick retooling. It could also have to do Arnold Schwarzenegger‘s recent heart surgery. Schwarzenegger is set to return for the film, but the actor had to undergo emergency heart surgery a few days ago. Perhaps he needs more time to recover, and this is interfering with shooting.
