10 Biggest Movie And TV News This Week (Feb 15)

5. Terminator: Genesis: Jai Courtney or Boyd Holbrook Up For Kyle Reese

Kylereese Terminator: Genesis, the fifth film and upcoming quasi-reboot of the series, is moving forward towards its current July 1, 2015 release date. We don't know a lot about the film, other than that Thor: The Dark World director Alan Taylor is in talks to helm the project, with Arnold Schwarzenegger set to return alongside Game of Thrones' Emilia Clarke as Sarah Connor and Dawn of the Planet of the Apes' Jason Clarke (no relation) as her son and future-savior of mankind John. The last major role to be cast is John's father, Kyle Reese, and on Tuesday Deadline reported that the search has now come down to two actors: Jai Courtney (A Good Day To Die Hard) and Boyd Holbrook (Hatfields & McCoys). Both actors are currently on the rise, and Holbrook is reported as the current frontrunner among the two. According to Deadline, we won't have to wait long to find out who lands the coveted role, as they say the studio will decide shortly.
