Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Terminator Zero, an upcoming anime series set in the world of Terminator, is delivering exactly what the franchise has been missing since 2009. Following the underwhelming box office results of Terminator: Genisys and Terminator: Dark Fate, both of which received mixed reviews and couldn’t live up to the original films, the future of the Terminator franchise on the big screen is unclear.
2022: A future war has raged for decades between the few human survivors and an endless army of machines. 1997: The AI known as Skynet gained self-awareness and began its war against humanity. An eight-episode anime series can deliver the compelling, innovative Terminator story the saga has been missing.
The Sarah Connor Chronicles’ declining viewership numbers and high budget were reportedly the reasons that led to the show’s cancelation despite the relatively good reception of the story. Compared to the fast-paced, action-packed movies, The Sarah Connor Chronicles had way more time to explore the characters and play with the concept of time travel. It also made some interesting additions to the Terminator lore, although most of them would be ignored in future installments.
