"It was one of those really unique characters where you were amongst the top 10 villains and heroes, and that's unheard of. I feel very indebted to Jim Cameron for creating this character and movies. And I'm so happy that he's part of this one again. And that he and Linda came back... I think that you will all be surprised with this movie because it has come out unbelievable. I was blown away by it when I first saw it."

James Cameron, who directed the first two "Terminator" films, will serve as a producer on "Dark Fate".

Meanwhile, Hamilton told fans that playing Sarah Connor again brought back a lot of great memories.

"There was a world of richness that I could explore and then rock it at a certain age," the actress said. "The richness of my life experience will only enrich the character that I will play."
