When "The Terminator" said "I'll be back" 40 years ago, he wasn't kidding. Because he just keeps coming back no matter how many times they kill him. The latest entry in the franchise is an anime series in the works at Netflix.
According to a teaser, it's "coming soon." But that's literally all we know about it at this point.
This is technically the second "Terminator" series. Remember that live-action show "The Sarah Connor Chronicles"? Co-starring Shirley Manson from the band Garbage no less. It ran on Fox for two seasons, from 2008 to 2009.
