The title says it all! Some photos were recently leaked from an indoor set location of the new Terminator movie! These aren't studio-sanctioned, but as with anything on the internet, once they're out there, they're out there, and the fans have certainly been thirsting for the first glimpse of Arnold as the Terminator again! We would likely not post these if they were spoiler-heavy, but as you can see, very little is revealed here. Enough talk, without further ado, here they are:

Our first thoughts on these are that we like Arnold's new "aged" T-800 look. He is definitely looking bad-ass as ever, even just a shadowy figure in the background of these pics, and the jacket style change to something non black leather is good. Previously, many people thought it implausible that Arnold could still play the Terminator at his age without lots of CG help, but as we know, the T-800 is "living tissue over metal endoskeleton." This means their skin ages just like any human, therefore, Arnold can play a Terminator in his 60s. He could also still play a human character in addition to the Terminator, but we've seen no evidence to this yet, and if it was the case, it would be tightly under wraps at this stage, as with most plot details.

We also get to see the other principal actors here: Emilia Clarke as a young Sarah Connor and Jai Courtney as Kyle Reese. Why they are wearing hospital scrubs and pointing a gun at a suited figure is anybody's guess, but they look cool doing it! We know it's not Dr. Silberman unless he was recast too, but that would be a tragedy.

There's not much else to say, other than it's sweet to see Arnold back doing his cybernetic thing! We hope for some OFFICIAL pics and tweets from the set as they continue filming for the next couple months.
