Let’s be honest; Terminator Genysis wasn’t a very popular movie and the odds of it getting a sequel were pretty low from the get-go. And now those odds have got significantly worse with Emilia Clarke’s admission that she won’t be returning to the role of Sarah Connor.

“So, it’s been fun, but I have an Iron Throne to win.”

There’s likely to be other reasons, but, according to comingsoon.net, Emilia Clarke’s reason is due to new roles that have caught her interest;

“No,” Clarke put it succinctly when we asked if she might again play Sarah Connor in future Terminator sequels. “Can I say that? It’s okay. No. Uh-uh. But I have some very different roles coming up.”

Among those roles is the lead in Warner Bros. Pictures‘ Me Before You which, the Game of Thrones star explains, is a dream project for her.”

According to Clarke, she read the book while filming Genysis and, in her words,

“I was shooting ‘Terminator’ at the time and had a rocket launcher in my hand while crying like a little girl. I felt like the author, Jojo Moyes, had found a part of me and just wrote it down. I knew that I just had to play the role.”

With Emilia Clarke’s departure, will there be any more Terminator sequels before the rights revert to James Cameron? Only time will tell.

Joe Morgan

An avid gamer since Nintendo vs Sega was a thing, Joe hopes to one day be a game designer himself.

When he’s not working on his design document for his planned ‘Joe is awesome’ RPG, he spends his time writing, going to track days and going to his local cinema.
