Arnold Schwarzenegger may be older but that does not stop him from destroying his younger self, as the former governor of California returns to one of his most recognisable roles in "Terminator: Genisys".

The film, out in theatres on Wednesday, opens a new chapter for the "Terminator" franchise, with a slew of new cast members joining Schwarzenegger, including "Game of Thrones" actress Emilia Clarke and "Divergent" star Jai Courtney.
The story follows resistance fighter Kyle Reese (Courtney) travelling back in time to 1984, the year of the first "Terminator" film, to save Sarah Connor (Clarke) from a cyborg humanoid assassin, the Terminator.
But he soon finds the events of the past have already been altered, taking him and Connor on a new mission to fight the killer artificial intelligence entity Skynet, with help from Schwarzenegger's older, greyer Terminator, Connor's protector.
"I said I'd be delighted to play the Terminator again, especially after 30 years of having starred in the first one, but we have to have a great story and a great script otherwise it won't work," Schwarzenegger, 67, told Reuters.
