Netflix has released the first six minutes from next week’s Terminator Zero series which is from Mattson Tomlin who helped write the Matt Reeves and Robert Pattinson The Batman movies.
When Terminator Zero was first announced I was highly suspect it would take a Hollywood approach and ruin the material. Then EW posted that article about how Terminator Zero doesn’t have guns.
I actually tweeted Tomlin about it who laughed and replied, yeah there are guns. Well, watch the the first six minutes below which features tons of awesome action, and yes, f’n guns!!!
If the rest of the series is as good as the first six minutes, we’re all in for a treat. How about Mattson Tomlin gets involved with James Cameron’s new Terminator live-action project?!
“It was very, very important to me that we set the tone off right. You can now watch the first six minutes of TERMINATOR ZERO online. I cannot wait for you all to see what we have in store for you,” tweeted Tomlin.
Watch below!
