As filming for Terminator 5: Genesis is currently underway in New Orleans, photos of Arnold Schwarzenegger taking a break, smoking a cigar, were recently revealed on the set.

Miles Dyson To Return In Genesis; Actor Portraying SkyNet Creator Revealed?

The actor was spotted wearing all-black but what was most noticeable is what look like burn bruises on his face. The Sunday Express revealed the images on June 6.

On May 29, Perez Hilton revealed an on set photo featuring Schwarzenegger, Emilia, Jai Courtney and Jason Clarke. In the image Emilia, who plays Sarah Connor, and Courtney, who plays Kyle Reese, are dressed in blue scrubs and are holding onto hand guns. Schwarzenegger stands behind them, suspiciously looking on, while Jason, who plays John Connor, seems to be explaining something to them.

James Cameron Not 'Terribly Concerned' About Genesis?

Arnold Schwarzenegger is set to reprise his role as the iconic cyborg in the film but it's not quite clear which side he is on. 

While it had been suggested that the film will be a reboot, that is not exactly true. It has been reported that Terminator: Genesis will rewind to the first two films in the series and will move back and forth in the plot with the help of time travel scenes.

Another very interesting aspect of this film is the fact that the cyborg will age. Schwarzenegger revealed that the Terminator won't defy mortality for the very first time.

"The way that the character is written, it's a machine underneath," he said. "It's this metal skeleton. But above that is human flesh. And the Terminator's flesh ages, just like any other human being's flesh. Maybe not as fast. But it definitely ages."

The new film is being directed by Alan Taylor. Jai Courtney will be playing Kyle Reese, Jason Clarke will be portraying the part of John Connor, and Emilia Clarke will play Sarah Connor. Sandrine Holt (House of Cards) will be playing Detective Cheung, who will arrest Kyle and Sarah when they arrive in 2017.
