Terminator franchise star Linda Hamilton has confirmed that she will never play Sarah Connor again.
Hamilton played Sarah in the original Terminator as well as its direct sequel Terminator 2: Judgement Day. Nearly 30 years later, she returned as the character for Terminator: Dark Fate alongside Arnold Schwarzenegger, though the movie did not receive acclaim from critics.
The actor believes her time as Connor has come to an end.
"I'm done. I'm done. I have nothing more to say. The story's been told, and it's been done to death," she told Business Insider.
"Why anybody would relaunch it is a mystery to me. But I know our Hollywood world is built on relaunches right now."
Connor saved three billion lives when she intervened to stop Judgement Day, but she certainly isn't perfect, according to Hamilton.

"I truly feel like, and felt like, Sarah Connor is not an icon. She's a woman in hell. She makes some really bad choices. She's not a good mother, she's a good fighter!" Hamilton added.
"So you sort of try to parse the details out and go, 'Well, they respect her strength and her power, and I did create a warrior, but she's very imperfect. She's an imperfect person.'"
Terminator reboot
James Cameron has revealed that "discussions" have taken place over a potential reboot of The Terminator franchise.
"If I were to do another Terminator film and maybe try to launch that franchise again, which is in discussion, but nothing has been decided, I would make it much more about the AI side of it than bad robots gone crazy," he said on the Smartless podcast.
Cameron recently said how he clashed, as a producer, with director Tim Miller on Dark Fate.
