The announcement was made by the President of Lionsgate’s Motion Picture Group Joe Drake, and President of Production Michael Paseornek.

Korean action-suspense master Kim Jee-Woon (A TALE OF TWO SISTERS, THE GOOD, THE BAD, THE WEIRD) will direct the film, which is purportedly the “starring vehicle for the former California Governor.”

Joe Drake sees this as a perfect fit for the action-movie star. “Arnold Schwarzenegger will bring incredible magnetism to this complex but classic role,” he said. “When he came on the screen in THE EXPENDABLES, it always electrified the audience.”

THE LAST STAND is being developed for the Terminator's return to films.
