Best news of the morning! Our beloved 11th Doctor, Matt Smith, has joined the cast of the up coming Terminator movie, Terminator: Genesis !

The production company Sky Dance announced the news on their Facebook page this morning.

“We don’t have a TARDIS, but we do have a Time Lord: Matt Smith is joining the cast of #Terminator, and John Connor is VERY happy about it.”

Paramount further confirmed the most excellent news: “Smith will play a new character with a strong connection to John Connor, alongside Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jason Clarke, Emilia Clarke, Jai Courtney, J.K. Simmons, Dayo Okeniyi and Byung Hun Lee.”

Not much is known about the plot of the up coming film, due out on July 1st, 2015, except that is going to be running concurrently with the first film. Drew McWeeney at HitFix reported: “Kind of like Back to the Future, the Terminator: Genesis script folds into the first film in the series.

“There’s a scene in the script where literally, we see the scene in the first Terminator where Arnold steps out, the punks threaten him, he rips Bill Paxton’s heart out and takes his clothes and wanders off.

“And as soon as that scene ends, another Arnold Schwarzenegger who’s older, and bearded and a very different version of the Terminator, comes walking in from the other side and plays another scene, right at the scene of that first incident.”

Between this and the casting of Matt Smith I am becoming more and more excited about the possibilities for this film!
