They can travel through time... but can't turn back the years! Schwarzenegger, 66, reveals his Terminator will be covered in 'aged' human skin in sci-fi series' new film

His famous 'I'll be back' line from Terminator is one of the most popular quotes in cinema history.

And now Arnold Schwarzenegger has filmed his first scenes as he returns to his cyborg role in Terminator: Genesis.



The 66-year-old actor was seen in jeans and a khaki jacket as he filmed alongside Game of Thrones star Emilia Clarke, 27, in New Orleans on Wednesday.

But while the sci-fi series depicts time-travelling robots who return to the past to change the future, it seems there is one aspect about time that cannot be altered in the future: getting old.

Schwarzenegger has revealed how writers have come up with a plot that involves cyborgs disguised using human skin that ages... as it was the only way they could explain why his T-800 looked older, with grey hair.

He told MTV: 'Terminator deals a lot with time travel, so there will be a younger T-800, and then what that model does later on when it gets reprogrammed, and who gets a hold of him. So it will be all kinds of interesting twists in the movie, but I feel so good.'

He added: 'The way that the character is written, it's a machine underneath. It's this metal skeleton. But above that is human flesh. And the Terminator's flesh ages, just like any other human being's flesh. Maybe not as fast. But it definitely ages.'



Emilia sported blonde hair in the Game of Thrones series for her regal character Daenerys Targaryen, the ‘Queen of the Dragons’.



But in Game of Thrones, is now a brunette for her role as Sarah Connor.



The part of her son, robot-busting warrior John Connor is being played by Jason Clarke, 44.

The age difference between the mother and son suggests that time-travel will be involved in the film, which is set to be released on July 1.

He will reprise the role he first played in 1984's The Terminator, after he was forced to step down while he was the Governor of California between 2003 - 2011.

He said Jameson Empire Awards last month : 'The last time when they did The Terminator it was when I was governor and so I couldn't be in that movie, but now I'm back again and they are very excited about having me in the film.
