A new still featuring the T-800 endoskeleton from Terminator: Genisys was recently revealed.

Child Actor To Play SkyNet In Terminator: Genisys?

USA Today unveiled the image on January 5, showing the steely beast with neon red eyes, labelling the movie as possibly the "geekiest" of this year.

The new film is being directed by Alan Taylor. Sandrine Holt (House of Cards) will be playing Detective Cheung, who will "arrest Kyle and Sarah when they arrive in 2017."

While it had been suggested that the film will be a reboot, that is not exactly true. It has been reported that Terminator: Genisys will rewind to the first two films in the series and will move back and forth in the plot with the help of time travel scenes.

The first official look at the movie was revealed in Entertainment Weekly in October. In the excerpts available online it is revealed that Sarah of Genisys will actually be quite different from the Sarah fans have known until now. She will not be a diffident waif, who is completely thrown by the Terminator tracking her and clueless about her destiny as John Connor's (Jason Clarke) mother and the war against Skynet. The new Sarah Connor will be aware of her destiny since she is 9 years of age and will be raised by an older T-800, played by Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Co-producer David Ellison dished about this aspect of Sarah's character.

"Since she was 9 years old, she has been told everything that was supposed to happen," Ellison said. "But Sarah fundamentally rejects that destiny. She says, 'That's not what I want to do.' It's her decision that drives the story in a very different direction."

Another very interesting aspect of this film is the fact that the cyborg will age. Arnold Schwarzenegger revealed that the Terminator won't defy mortality for the very first time.

"The way that the character is written, it's a machine underneath," he said. "It's this metal skeleton. But above that is human flesh. And the Terminator's flesh ages, just like any other human being's flesh. Maybe not as fast. But it definitely ages."

Terminator: Genisys is scheduled to release in July 2015.
