The 70-year-old star is getting set for his sixth Terminator outing, which he’s now confirmed will shoot this summer.
Speaking with The Arnold Fans, Arnie said: “We are starting to shoot Terminator 6 in June to the middle of October, so I am in that.”
“I am looking forward to coming back as the T-800 model.
“It's gonna be great with Tim Miller as the director and Jim Cameron is kind of supervising the whole thing.”

Interestingly Arnie saying he’s back as the T-800 Terminator, isn’t what fans previously thought.
Cameron, who directed the first two movies, had alluded to Arnie playing the man the robot was based on.
He said: “Yeah, you got to ask yourself, ‘Why did they make these characters look and sound like Arnold?’ There has to be a reason.
“So yeah, it has flashed through my mind that there has to have been a prototype.
“There has to have been a guy who’s DNA was harvested from – that they grew the organic outer layer that they grew the Terminator from…and that presumably was a real person at some point.”

Terminator 6 will be a direct sequel to Terminator 2: Judgement Day, ignoring the other films
Of course it’s possible for Arnie to play both the man and the T-800, especially as de-aging technology has shown promise in recent blockbusters.
Obvious examples are from recent Marvel movies such as Robert Downey Jr in Captain America: Civil War and Michael Douglas in Ant-Man.
Terminator 6 is set for release in July 2019.
