And obtained the full rights in 1998, and they would ultimately produce the film.

In 1999, was hired to write the first draft of the script. Mostow joined the project as director in 2001, and he brought on to rewrite Sarafian's script.

The film was distributed internationally. It grossed over $433.4 million worldwide and was followed by a sequel, in 2009. James Cameron in 2000had directed and co-written the previous films.

The film rights to the franchise were held by and by Cameron's ex-wife, who both held 50 percent of the rights. Cameron had sold his stake to Hurd for $1 prior to directing (1984). In July 1991, while was in its theatrical run, Cameron said that if the film were successful then 'there may be some economic pressure' to do a sequel. During the same month, producer Gale Anne Hurd said, 'I've always felt the story lent itself wonderfully to being a continuing tale.' She believed it was natural that a third film would happen, but was unsure at that time if would reprise his role as the. She said that for Schwarzenegger to commit to another film, he would have to read a finished script, approve a director, and see if the project fit into his schedule. In May 1992, Carolco Pictures co-founder said he expected to make a Terminator 3 film within the next five to seven years., which distributed Terminator 2, would be involved in the new film.

That month, TriStar chief said the film would probably take a couple of years.By the end of 1995, Carolco had filed for bankruptcy, and Cameron wanted to direct a third film with the involvement of. Cameron's 3D film ride, would open later in 1996. The project reunited the main cast of Terminator 2: Judgment Day, and had prompted Cameron to begin writing a script for a Terminator 3 film. Cameron said Terminator 2 3D: Battle Across Time would serve as a 'stepping stone' toward a third Terminator film.

However, such a film would not be ready for a few years as Cameron was busy working on for 20th Century Fox.When Carolco filed for bankruptcy on November 10, 1995, its assets were bound to a auction. That day, 20th Century Fox signed a $50 million deal to acquire all of Carolco's assets, including the rights to Terminator sequels, as well as the company's existing film library. Fox withdrew its bid in January 1996, when bid $58 million for Carolco's film library. Canal Plus' offer did not include purchasing the rights for Carolco sequel films, but Fox wanted all of Carolco's assets and was unwilling to match or exceed the bid offer made by Canal Plus. The sequel rights would ultimately be auctioned through U.S.

Bankruptcy court, where Fox intended to purchase them.The new Terminator film would have Schwarzenegger reprising his role. Had also talked with Cameron about reprising her role as.

During 1997, Fox spent nine months negotiating with Cameron, Schwarzenegger, and Hurd, the latter in regard to her share of the sequel rights., chairman of, oversaw the project and negotiations at that time. Mechanic wanted the trio to be involved in the new film, so he sought to first secure deals with them before proceeding with a purchase of the Carolco rights. Mechanic also believed that a deal with the trio would give him necessary leverage with the U.S.

Bankruptcy court to acquire the rights from Carolco. At that time, Cameron committed to writing and producing the film, and reserved the right to direct it in the event that he wanted to do so.Fox intended to make the new Terminator film on a budget similar to its predecessor, approximately $95 million. However, it was determined that the film could not be made on the intended budget when considering the additional cost of purchasing Carolco's rights, as well as Schwarzenegger's desired $25 million salary. At some point, Schwarzenegger had talked to Cameron about the two of them buying the rights themselves, but Cameron was not interested in this idea and wanted to let Fox handle the rights. Schwarzenegger said about Fox, 'Only later did I learn they were making these ridiculous lowball offers, like $750,000.
