Linda Hamilton is the latest name to return to the Terminator films, more than 25 years since her last appearance as the series’ robot-battling heroine Sarah Connor. The actor’s return was announced by Terminator creator James Cameron at a private event celebrating the franchise, according to the Hollywood Reporter. “As meaningful as she was to gender and action stars everywhere back then, it’s going to make a huge statement to have that seasoned warrior that she’s become return,” Cameron said of Hamilton’s comeback. Speaking at the time of that film’s release, she said that the franchise should have ended after Judgment Day. Cameron’s comments drew a response from Wonder Woman director Patty Jenkins who said that he had an “inability to understand what [the character] is or stands for” because “he is not a woman”.
