Creating the 'Terminator Zero' Story with Mattson Tomlin
20In an interview with Mattson Tomlin, the creator, executive producer, and writer of the animated Netflix series Terminator: Zero to discuss the upcoming show. He talked about the show's timeline, the decision to use new characters, the challenges of writing action scenes in Japan, and the influence of AI on the story.
Terminator: Zero takes us to 2022, where a relentless war has raged for decades between the last remnants of humanity and an unending machine army. Flashback to 1997: the AI known as Skynet achieves self-awareness and launches its devastating war against humankind. A soldier sent back in time to alter humanity's grim fate is caught in the crossfire between these two timelines. Arriving in 1997, Eiko's (Sonoya Mizuno) mission is to protect scientist Malcolm Lee (André Holland) as he races to launch a new AI system, Kokoro (Rosario Dawson) designed to counter Skynet's impending attack. Malcolm grapples with the moral implications of his creation while being hunted by a relentless assassin (Timothy Olyphant) from the future; an event that tragically alters the lives of his three children.
