Saturn Scoop: Stan Winston revisits TERMINATOR 3

"Arnold's is back. The Terminator is back. We're back and we're doing some things that are going to be pretty wonderful."


Those were the words from Saturn Award-winning creature and puppet designer Stan Winston when he talked to us at the 28th annual Saturn Awards about returning to the TERMINATOR series with TERMINATOR 3: RISE OF THE MACHINES. Winston was one of the stars made almost 20 years ago with his work on James Cameron's first TERMINATOR movie.


"Everything we're doing is new. It's far beyond what we've seen before," Winston teased, just before picking up his award for the effects work on A.I. "There is a new Terminator, a female. There are Terminators which are pre-Arnold [Schwarzenegger], there's a lot to see. Jonathan Mostow is doing a wonderful job directing."


Winston also had a few things to say about Kristanna Loken, who's playing the first female Terminator, the T-X.


"Kristanna is wonderful. She's scary, she's intense, she's perfect for the role," Winston said. "She's brought a female version of what Robert Patrick brought to his role [as the T-1000] in TERMINATOR 2."


Winston then went on to tease what fans will see when the film hits theaters next year.


"In TERMINATOR we pretended to create a robot," Winston said. "In TERMINATOR 3 we really have."
