Deadline report that Matt Smith has been cast in a major role in the new Terminator trilogy.

Smith is reportedly set to first appear in Terminator Genesis in 2015 and his role will grow over the second and third films.

Smith will join Game Of Thrones‘ Emilia Clarke (Sara Connor), Zero Dark Thirty’s Jason Clarke (John Connor), Jai Courtney (Kyle Reese), Day Okeniyi (Danny Dyson, son of the brainiac cyborg developer played by Joe Morton in Terminator: Judgment Day), and Arnold Schwarzenegger, who reprises his signature cyborg. The time-travel saga Terminator: Genesis is directed by Alan Taylor and has a July 1, 2015 released date. Smith is repped by UTA and Troika.

  • NewWho2012

    Oh wow this sounds great! I’ll definitely be watching this then. As it says major role then I hope he is cast as the evil cyborg or whatever that Arnold Schwarzenegger usually defeats, would be great fun, even the picture above suits it.

  • Liana

    Great news for Matt, and you can bet that I’ll be there viewing the movies.

    • Ghoul

      Why do you think I watched The Hobbit? Because McCoy is in there.

      • Liana

        I watvhed the Hobbit for McCoy too, he’s the best of the movie

        • Ghoul

          It’s also funny, because Gandalf is the voice of the Great Intelligence.

  • Michael W. Distefano

    Can you imagine? Mr. Clever playing opposite the Terminator. Seriously, just imagine that dynamic for a second.

  • aztecs_daleks_and_cavemen

    Yeah, he’s doing stuff. Check out the short film he directed ‘Cargese’

  • Will

    I am actually overjoyed to hear how Karen, Arthur and Matt are all doing so well! It’s indescribable how elated I am for them! I just knew they all had a bright future ahead of them, but I never quite expected how sudden their rise to worldwide fame would be!
    Matt – I wish him the best of luck – will be the stand-out role in the entire movie (I’m calling it) and I simply cannot wait for him to make his first appearance in a debut!
    I wasn’t looking forward to the new Terminator trilogy… but now (without a question of a doubt) I certainly am!

  • The Catterson

    WOO! THAT’S MY BOY. I knew something big would happen to Matt and now, you are in TERMINATOR MAN…OH MY…

  • Chronos

    He will sonic everything in his path :D

  • Sweet. Glad to see his talent has been recognised over seas in the land called Hollywood. I’m really happy for him getting such a big role especially with it being a part of a massive franchise such as Terminator. You go Smith :D

  • Well done Matt!

  • Joe Cassara

    Every geek is going wild over Matt Smith being cast in the Terminator reboot, like it’s some kind of Doctor Who/Terminator crossover. Jesus. Get a grip, nerds.

    • THEBIGBLUEBOX100

      So what if they are, they are are happy to see one of the past Doctor Who actors in something besides Doctor Who. If there are people out there who are excited about that, well why shouldn’t they be?…nerd

      • Dalekbuster523

        Agreed,although David Tennant would be a better choice for a movie role because he is a better actor. Matt Smith is a great actor too,though.

        • Lady Romanadvoratrelundar

          David Tennant could have gotten movie roles if he wanted, but he never pursued them. He seems quite happy staying in the UK and doing Broadchurch.

    • Basically Just a Snow Queen

      1. Every geek? No. Your generalizing that all geeks/nerds are Doctor Who fans.
      2. I haven’t seen anything acting as if it were a Doctor Who/Terminator crossover.
      3. Wait, so everyone who likes ‘Who’ is a nerd? *Facepalm*

    • ShalkaDoctor

      So you’re wasting your time on a “nerd” site telling people they are “nerds”? A delicious piece of irony.

    • Lady Romanadvoratrelundar

      As Whovians, we care about our own. Matt Smith wanted to be a Hollywood star after he left Doctor Who, it makes us happy that his dream is coming true. Problem?

  • teddybowties

    The Doctor is Geek Jesus. ALL HAIL OUR LORD, MASTER AND KING! HE WINS HOLLYWOOD.

    • Basically Just a Snow Queen

      I’m Atheist. :P
