Netflix Releases Trailer for Terminator Zero Anime

Netflix has unveiled the trailer for 'Terminator Zero,' an upcoming anime series set in the iconic Terminator universe, scheduled to premiere on August 29, 2024. The story revolves around scientist Malcolm Lee, who develops a benevolent AI named Kokoro to combat Skynet, which sends a cyborg assassin back to eliminate him.

The series is created by Mattson Tomlin and features a talented voice cast, including Timothy Olyphant and Rosario Dawson. The animation, produced by Japanese studio Production I.G, promises a unique aesthetic that aligns with the franchise's cyberpunk roots. Overall, 'Terminator Zero' aims to revitalize the franchise with fresh ideas while retaining its core themes.
