Paramount Home Media has tabbed Jan. 28 as the home
entertainment packaged media rollout date for director Tim Miller’s Terminator:
Dark Fate, reuniting Linda Hamilton with Arnold
Schwarzenegger.
That end-of-January street date yields a
quick-to-market 88 days. Domestic box
office receipts currently stand at $62.1 million.
This will be a three-SKU array of packaged media
product choices — Combo Pack editions for both the 4K Ultra HD (with Blu-ray)
and Blu-ray (with DVD) formats, plus a stand-alone DVD edition.
The honored timeline of protecting John Connor
(variously played over the years by Edward Furlong, Nick Stahl, Christian Bale
and Jason Clarke, among others, at various times in the character’s life) is
stood on its head in the opening minutes of Terminator:
Dark Fate as the machine assassin from the
future finally succeeds ... it is a T-800!!
We then skip ahead to the present day and the
arrival of a new, even more deadly “terminator” from the future, the Rev-9
(Gabriel Luna), whose mission is to terminate Dani Ramos (Natalia Reyes) the
future leader of the resistance. She
too has a guardian angel sent back in time from the future, a cyborg soldier by
the name of Grace (Mackenzie Davis — The
Martian, Blade Runner 2049), who has been by an
adult Ramos to protect her younger self. 
Together with Sarah Connor (a return to the
character by Linda Hamilton) and a remorseful T-800 (Arnold Schwarzenegger),
the new challenge is met … an open ending at least sets the stage for future Terminator
movies.
Bonus goodies include deleted and extended scenes
and four production featurettes — “A Legend Reforged,” “World Builders,” “Dam
Busters: The Final Showdown” and “VFX Breakdown: The Dragonfly.”
