If a deal is finalized, Boneta will reportedly play a human, though no other details about his character were revealed.
These two would join Arnold Schwarzenegger, who is once again playing a T-800 (though we may also learn why that Terminator model has that specific facial design), and Linda Hamilton, who will reprise Sarah Connor nearly 30 years after Terminator 2: Judgement Day.
The search is still underway to cast the new main protagonist who will serve in a similar role as Sarah Connor did in the earlier movies.
Last month, it was reported that Halt and Catch Fire star Mackenzie Davis was being lined up to play a human solider-assassin from the future in Terminator 6, and now THR has heard that Diego Boneta is in negotiations to join her in the science fiction flick.
