'Terminator: Dark Fate' Director Promises R-Rating

The next Terminator film will definitely not be family-friendly.

Tim Miller has announced that the film will be rated R. He dropped that MPAA rating bomb during a San Diego Comic-Con on Thursday, Variety reports. Fans in Hall H were reportedly excited to hear the news.

The franchise started off with a string of R-rated films. In fact, 1984's "Terminator: Genisys," both of which received the more mild rating of PG-13. Fans didn't approve of the change, and apparently Miller didn't, either.

"The DNA of 'Terminator' is an R-rated f--king movie," he said at Comic-Con.

The other big news to come out of the is that Edward Furlong will be back, reprising his role as John Connor from "Terminator 2," as CNBC reports. The celebration of both announcements has already begun on Twitter:

Ed coming back as John Connor in the new Terminator movie is blowing my mind. AND ITS RATED R? THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU.
