Daenerys Targaryen Is Now Your Sarah Connor in TERMINATOR Reboot

 

Well it appears HBO's Game of Thrones actress Emilia Clarke will take what is hers with blood and fire (and some time travel) in the upcoming reboot of the Terminator franchise. 

Deadline reports:

It’s official. Emilia Clarkewill play Sarah Connor in the Terminatorreboot, re-teaming with director Alan Taylor, who has worked with Clarke in the HBO series Game Of Thrones. Clarke joinsJason Clarke, who is in negotiations to play her son John Connor in a storyline I’ve heard involved a trip into the future. Deadline revealed that he was in talks earlier this week. Arnold Schwarzenegger is also back in his signature cyborg role.

It's hard to picture Emilia as the capable badass that made Linda Hamilton an icon in Terminator and it's sequel, T2: Judgement Day, and while I think it's totally badass that we have Arnie back, I can't see how an almost 70-year old Terminator would be menacing.

Still no word on the casting of a key player in the Terminator franchise, Kyle Reese, who was most recently played by Anton Yelchin in Terminator: Salvation which was the last attempt to continue/reboot the franchise with Christian Bale as John Connor. 

The as of yet untitled reboot hits theaters July 2015, so cram that into your schedule between literally every other fucking movie ever made that release that summer.
