MUMBAI: Arnold Schwarzenegger is set to star in Terminator 5.

The 65-year-old action hero, who starred in the first three installments of the film franchise, said during promotion for his latest movie ‘The Last Stand‘ that he will star in the forthcoming film, it has been reported.

Schwarzenegger is pleased with the way the motion picture is taking after the film‘s bosses hired some "really quality writers".

"They‘re writing right now Terminator 5. There have been some writers on it for the last year-and-a-half and they could not pull it off. We have told them over and over that they are going in the wrong direction, now they‘ve finally got rid of those writers and they‘ve got new really quality writers. Now they‘re going in the right direction. I think this year the script will be finished and we will be able to go into pre-production," he observed.
