We told you! After our late Saturday report indicating the Paramount Pictures’ decision not to pick up their option to make a sixth Terminator film wasn’t a bad thing, and after all the panic that was ensued by fans after the false reporting by other news sites that “Terminator 6” was dead, and after we released a new article again to reassure fans that they had nothing to fear, we finally have confirmation that we were right.

Collider has just reported that they had a recent coversation with Skydance chief David Ellison, and that talk revealed that a major announcement about the Terminator franchise is coming in 2017. Here is what David had to say:

DAVID ELLISON: “I will say we have resolved the future of the franchise and believe me its an incredibly bright future. I think where it’s going will be the continuation of what the fans really wanted since T2.” “We have something this year that we will be announcing for the franchise. It’s something we’re incredibly excited about and we think is the direction it needs to head.”

Now will the new announcement reveal that “Terminator 6” will be made with 20th Century Fox, confirming the scoop we reported here weeks ago? We will have to wait and see, but David Ellison just said he had “resolved the future of the franchise and believe me it’s an incredibly bright future.” A bright future indeed, for Terminator fans!

We’ll be back… and so will TERMINATOR!
