Here are Arnold Schwarzenegger's best moments in the Terminator franchise.Īrnold Schwarzenegger's third Terminator film is the weakest in the Terminator trilogy, unable to reach the high bar set by The Terminator and Terminator 2: Judgment Day. From the leather jacket to the black shades and Schwarzenegger's imposing physical stature, there are few humanoid robots that look as iconic as the Terminator. Schwarzenegger appears in every Terminator film including the digital recreation of his likeness used in Salvation The Terminator, Terminator 2: Judgment Day, Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, Terminator Salvation, Terminator Genisys, and Terminator: Dark Fate. As a machine that is one of many copies, Schwarzenegger portrays several Terminator models throughout the franchise. The Terminator is a machine created by Skynet, a self-aware artificial intelligence waging war against humanity. In fact, Schwarzenegger's Terminator made its way onto AFI's "100 Years, 100 Heroes and Villains" list as the "22nd greatest villain" and "48th greatest hero." Regardless of the new Terminator films' financial underperformance in recent years, Arnold Schwarzenegger's iconic role continues to be one of the best in the history of sci-fi action cinema.

All plans for future films were terminated after Terminator: Dark Fate became the third film in ten years to fail to launch a new trilogy. For the time being, the Terminatorfilm franchise is suffering a dark fate.
